I was there for the 1st half - had to go to work for a while. My pre-order was:
2 C. dowaina, 1 each C. jenmanii, loddigesii, schroederae, L. harpophylla and Phrag.fisheri x besseae.

Unfortunately some of the plants were unavailable, so I went home with 2 C. dowiana, C. gigas(warscewcizii), C. maxima 'Coronita', C. schroederae, Phrag. wallisii x besseae!

My plants last year did really good except the C. dowiana - just can't seem to get that species going and thriving. Although last year's C. gigas sat dormant (sulking) for almost 8 months, it is now doing well and in S/H.

Also picked up an in bloom Colmanara Wildcat 'Bobcat' from Paramount.
