I did not realize that both a grower and hybridizer could receive an AQ. That's pretty nice. I was there for judging that day and the lowii were very nice. I think maybe 5 were pulled for judging, but can't quite remember. There were over 30 something plants presented at judging. It's...

Apparently Deperle is a very dominant parent. Craig

Love the green color in this one. Mine is way too small to bloom. Can't wait though... Craig

Stunning....really Craig

Very nice Craig

OK, I just realized I have some more photos.....I'll try to get back to it and make 1 or 2 more posts about the show. I hope you enjoy! Craig

The Best Commercial Display in the 64th Oregon Orchid Society Show and Sale was put in by our very own Orchidmaven. Here are the pictures I took of it. There maybe some focus problems, but you will see a fantastic display and some of the nicest orchids around: As you can...

And the show goes on: The totally cool Laelia jongheana and the display that it was in: (This display was from Oscar Allen Nursery, Inc. and Oscar Allen is actually a bromeliad judge) Some Ophrys: (first is a hybrid, but I cannot remember of what..sorry) And the next...

I have a correction: Orchidmaven actually won 5 AOS awards and not 4. WOW indeed! I am also trying my hand at growing Masdevallias now after seeing her most wonderful ones once again. I just could not resist any longer. The theme of the show was Orchids: Mother Nature's Treasures...

I am bumping this thread because I was thinking about Isaias and remembering the 19 WOC in Miami. I think we all need to remember those who have made a difference, not only to us personally, but to the world community as well. Isaias is being missed by me today. May he rest in peace...

As the show chair I guess I should chime in. Our most modest orchidmaven(stein) received 4 AOS awards herself. There were indeed 33 AOS nominations but only 8 awarded. I do not think that I have pictures of all the awards, but I have some of the show that I have yet to download onto the...

Very nice display & congrats on the award. Craig

The Orchidist's Lexicon book is $8. It's a small paperback book, but I find it worth the price. PM me and maybe I can get together several of you who want one and get a good discount on them. Craig

OK, I have to plug my orchid society. The Oregon Orchid Society produced a book entitled "An Orchidist's Lexicon" that I really like. It covers some of these issues and has really helped me pronounce a lot of the orchid names more correctly. We have many copies available, but I cannot...

Get some more for the rest of us! Craig

I certainly vote for all 3 as well. Nothing wrong with that! Craig ps....very handsome plants you have there

They did sell more than one cross at the WOC. I bought a flask of them and ended up taking it back to the vendor because they are not legal in the US. I spoke to the head of the US Fish and Wildlife department and he told me specifically that even though they had the proper entry paperwork...

I've just recently began purchasing some Neos. I cannot find any information on Tipo. Could the tag be messed up? White flowers with no other coloring? Thanks, Craig

I too love this seller and find Doug to be most upstanding and sells some of the best plants....(Ernie does too, by the way) One thing I can say is that if you have a question about his stuff, you should just ask him. He is most pleasant to deal with and will help resolve any issues that you...

I'm loving it. Craig
