What did you get? Would you happen to have any pics of your new 'chids?

I also attended but couldn't get near the Clouds display too many people there. I did get an assortment of 6 paphs, catts and mini den from various venders. They look happy at home so far.

I absolutely loved the displays because I got to see orchids I've never seen live before. The orchids were absolutely stunning.

You won't regret it. You'll learn lots and have the opportunity to trade/buy/sell plants and divisions at very good prices. Glad that you enjoyed the show. It was the first time in 4 years that I missed it , too much going on.

Check their website first and make sure that it's a sales weekend, they are only open to public 1 weekend a month. Have fun.
