Time to this one to the top of our list!

The grand opening is only 1 1/2 weeks away

Since my last post here, there has been a change to the name of the nursery:

June's Orchid Estate

Here's a link to their flyer;

I just cannot wait to see this place in person

I've seen pictures from the early construction process and it looked awesome then...now I'm waiting for some new which I will post here as soon as I get them

For anybody who has even the tiniest possibilities of attending, I have just two words for you...

DO IT!!!

This place is going to be spectacular and you'll be sorry if you miss it, I guarantee that much

Stayed tuned for the new

Just imagine how excited you'd be if you had gone to the meeting yesterday and heard June describe the orchid tree that she and frank smith have created!

hahaha...I spoke to Laurie N today and she told me all about it

I also have John convinced that he needs to see the place and so far the plan is for him to escort us me, you and 2 Lindas?)there...he said we're not allowed to talk in the truck though

Isn't this the Krull-Smith collection that was sold to Ursa Orchids? I seem to recall reading that there was a trademark issue with Ursa, so they renamed it.

A real shame after all of the advertising they've done under the Ursa name.

Yes it is and I don't know the details of why Ryan is no longer involved...nor do I want to, it's none of my business

That's just a small detail though...the place is going to be more than just a "go to the nursery and pick up a chid" kind of place. It's going to be a place where folks want to spend time walking around with their jaw on the floor

Sue, That sounds dangerous.

I'm bringing a jaw sling with me

I was at June's house once and to this day, I still dream of just living on her lanai...I can only imagine what she's done with this place

I'm still hoping that one day she realizes how wonderful I am and agrees to the adoption I proposed
