A Howeara (Hwra.) is the intergeneric hybrid of Leochilus, Oncidium and Rodriguezia (Lchs x Onc x Rdza).
Hwra. Lava Burst = Hwra Mini Primi x Rodriguezia secunda
Hwra. Mini Primi = Rodontocidium Primi x Leochilus oncidioides
Rodontocidium Primi = Oncidium sarcodes X Rodriguezia lanceolata

Wow. Thanks, Dorothy! I think I'm going to need a shot of tequila just to help process all that.
In any event, it's truly beautiful!

Marilyn, what time you expect to be there? It's a two+ hour drive for me but I really want to get in one the early bird selections if I can make it.

I expect it will be late morning. She said she had several appointments Thursday. I have no idea how to get there once I hit Charlotte. I'm an old lady, I hope I don't end up in Lansing. Maybe I could go visit Jennifer.

Sue, does Louis Del Favero's in TPA have a website? As I did a search for them, and can't find them. Or can you plz give us some kind of number or address if they don't?
I'm not far from there, so I'd really like to sneak over there on day, and buy some some babies!!

He doesn't have a web site but if you can possibly make it there this weekend, you'll be pleasantly surprised
There will also be one or two other vendors there, I'm just not sure who it will be this time.

Ross, if you can guessestimate when you will be there, possibly we can meet there. It would be nice to have a cup of coffee together and talk orchids.

I noticed they had a scheduled open house in June. Think I'll attend that one as it's a Saturday.

Sue, we all know that this is just an excuse... If Lora wouldn't have asked you, you'd be calling her if you can tug along
