here were a few plants that made they're way into the truck during the course of the show. i only picked up 5total in the 4 days that I was there, but due to some online "enablers" ive been doing a lot of shopping latley and felt it best to curb some of my spending

at any rate I picked up a cymbidium seedling and a Zygo x Cochleanthes...neither are in bloom, so no pics at this time. I also got a complex paph from a vendor who was grateful for help loading and unloading for the show (great way to get freebies folks

) And last but not least a Catasetum and a little Zygo hybrid.

Very nice!

Thanks for the pics! You know it doesn't shut us up but it does makes us happy.

I don't remember the catasetum hybrid, Jim Marlow had one for sale in the venders area and one on the display. The one in the sale room got nabbed up in the first 15 min before I had time to get to it, so I bought the one of his exhibit and in all the hullabaloo of riping things down last night I failed to notice he had pulled the tag out for the show. So I'll have to track him down at the meeting tonight and get an ID on it.
