Hi Guys,
We had a full day work shop conducted by Fred Clark at Kampoo Restaurant well attended.(about 150 people)
I am very glad that I attended the work shop it was on spotted , splash cattleya and catasetums.
Learned a lot about choosing the plants for hybridizing.

yes veekay today i also took a day off policing to listen to that most pleasant speaker at a rare lecture by a US nurseryman.... i also agree it was a most informative and entertaining experience for a change..of course he bought many a plant for sale from the desert...needless to say i'm very pleased with the quality and variety of the plants and seedlings offered...his cattleya breeding is refreshing..i left with:-
1. C.violacea var flamea 'Icabaru' AM/AOS x C.violacea var flamea 'SVO Splash'
2. Rlc.Oconee Circle (Oconee x Circle of Life)
3. Dendrobium Aussie Parade 'Carrot Splash' x Hilda Poxon 'Spectacular'
