I found mine little Daruma Maru at New World Orchids!

Hey! Just a thought. But I have NWO's new plant list. . .do you think your wife would be willing to translate the Neo. plant names for us? If so, I could email the spreadsheet I am updating. Some of the names refer to places I think. . .like Amani Island and some refer to the color like "Red Emperor" for instance.

OOOHHH and the best yet I got a first and second for my 'crappy' photography. OK, I think im over stimulated! i need to go sit down! SOOOOO much fun!

LOVED IT! I got on a team that had two of us assigned as ribbon clerks. The one lady wanted to do it so the judges asked me to act as a spotter and just keep ahead of them. Well having set up a few of the exhibits and walking around the previous afternoon drooling I pretty much knew where everything was and just hung with the judges and listened to them. Really cool group of guys. Laughing, cracking jokes and seemed to know more than I'll ever pick up. Was a great day.

Your case is really special. You did such a nice job making it.

I see it is in bud. Mine is also and I'm hoping so that it will not blast. It's so exciting waiting and watching with everyone.
