Default Bonnet House Orchid Fair Dec 6-7!!!

Time for the Bonnet House Show! It is a small but very nice show held on the grounds of an historical home on Ft Lauderdale Beach. Really fun! There is a really huge V Cindy Banks there (50 years old or so) and they sell cuttings at the show as a fund raiser. Motes is there along with Mac's, Quest, Dan & Margie's, and about 10 more growers. Martin Motes will be speaking on vandas too.

"December 6and 7th Bonnet House Orchid Fair- 900 North Birch Road Ft. Lauderdale. Twenty Orchid Vendors, Lectures, Food, Orchid Book Signings. 9:00 Am - 4Pm. Saturday and Sunday.Dr. Motes will be lecturing at 12 noon both days. More information @ Bonnet House Museum & Gardens. 954-563-5393 Or from Sandy browardorchidsupply@comcast.net 954-925-2021"


It would be great to meet up with any OB folks that may be going! Post here or send me a pm. It is sure to be a beautiful weekend. Sunny and warm! Let's go!

from the show!

I loved this brilliant red bromiliad!
Someone made a "Slipper Tree" for the judging (very nice).
Me and Mom and daughter at the display tables.
The greenhouse where they grow the V Cindy Banks.
And a few pics of my new vanda from Motes (V Arjuna 'Wink' HCC/AOS) Very fragrant and more purple than these flash pictures show.
