Looks like you were almost as bad as we were. We (sister, mother and I) have been there twice this year already. Will need a greenhouse soon if we keep this up. Brs. Eternal Wind is very nice, I think they had it in bloom when we were there last month.

Yes, the Eternal Wind 'TOW' on display is a first bloom.. I was so happy to get an LS with a spike! How far away is Cloud's from where you live? (if you don't mind me asking)
