Michigan State Orchid show pictures ...
As always, some nice plants at the show. Due to abject laziness on my part, only some of the photos are here. To see the rest, you will have to go through the "laborious" process of clicking on the slideshow link at the end.  (Hopefully Photobucket won't screw it up ...)
To start you off, a rather "puny" chid. (Can you believe anyone even bothers to bring such a "wimpy" plant to a show?  )
To anyone unfamiliar with Soph. coccinea, it really is this eye-searing color.
Got a kick out of this one ... reminds me of a duck's bill. Maybe someone should show it to AFLAC.
One of my absolute favorite catt hybrids -- an oldie but goodie ...
I'd say this is the darkest, richest red Phrag I have ever encountered:
This one was a beauty I had never seen nor heard of before:
Now for those who aren't quite satisfied yet, here's a link to a few more photos -- hopefully it will work:

Red catt is jewel box 'dark waters'. The sign is just readable

Beautiful photos! Sorry we had to miss the show! Was Sunday a better turn out?
I put my preorder in for the MOS show.

My society had a display. I was there at 3PM to take it down. There were a lot of people. I had a chance to talk to several vendors and they were pleased with the turn out. It did look like they sold a lot of plants. They speculated that there was a lot of pent up demand. Even though the wind was blowing hard, it was warmer and sunnier. |
