Speaking of Sam, he yet knows this, I will be having the pleasure of his company at dinner in August. He is coming to my local OS to speak. I am invited to go eat with him.

I don't know about all species, but certainly the best multifloral species breeder. His roths are superb.

And, he is a genuinely nice guy. Which is a good thing.

Sounds too good to be true! Is there a web site?

Not a good one... I think he has pretty much given up on his website, with so many other things to do.

I just received his latest flask list, he will be in Toronto end of July and Montreal in October and shipping Canadian orders when he is here. Send me a PM and I will forward it on to you.
For the browsers, his site is http://www.orchidinnusa.com/
