I went on the first night, so I paid $35.
I drank some wine and had all the cheese, veggies, and crackers they had!
With the joke aside, I wish I didn't have to pay just to get in, but it was good, not great though.
I think it was mostly to raise extra money to pay for their renting the place. If it was free, I would have visited twice or more and spend that money to buy more plants. oh, well...
I pay about $20 to get in to NY botanical garden orchid show and that is worth $20!

I wonder why your Phrag. would be a problem? It is Phrag. kovachii x Phrag. schlimii. Keep moist or wet.
Be sure to post pics when it blooms!

The seller actually recommended me something else (saying she gets many customer complaining how difficult this hybrid is to grow), but I liked the flower picture of this one and it was already in bud with extra growths, I was like what the heck!
I know kovachii need rather cold water (like 55F at all time, which I can never do!) and extra pure water. This one is a hybrid, so I hope it is not as sensitive and do not require that cold water.
I will see and find out.
yes, I will post pictures when they open. It's a small plant but the flowers are supposed to be quite big so I'm excited.
leaves have issues though. hmmm
