You know I am going Leslie. 2 lectures, one on Phrag. Schlimii and one on the Caudatum
Group, and 2 posters. A few busy days for sure.

Sunlight Orchid Nursery will be selling also.

I am going to venture a guess that every Paph in the world will be available there or in one of the displays.

Thank you all. Hoping to see some of you and maybe visit their nurseries together. A bigger group usually gets a better attention.
