I went last year as well, and it was great, the venue (a greenhouse) was very nice I thought.

I too went last year and thought it was great, looking forward to going again this year.
I met one of the DC members at another nursery and she said it was a great organization, might check out their meetings.

I went here are some photos -
I enjoyed it but i was kind of tired and rushed. Wish I would have gotten earlier and bought a yellow Onc Twinkle. I got a Epc Rene Marques taht should bloom on the next growth but strangely in the potting medium there was soil... hmmm.

I loved some Lycastes on display and the guy that grows them advised me about potting orchids with really tight medium rather than using hooks. Just use the back of a hammer and press down.
Anyway can't grow those cool growing Lycastes.

There was a Den that i loved on display - the tag nearby said Den macrophyllum, but it is not.
I wish there were more species on sale rather than hybrids - would have loved an Onc ornythorhynchum but there was a Mtdm Rosy Sunset that I almost got but then I went for the Epc Rene Marques instead because I saw in the pat the Mtdm at Trader Joes for less and larger size.

Was surprised to see so many Onc Twinkles...

anyway
on the displays i wish i could see more of the plants/ growth rather than just the flowers and I could do without the frames around the bloom.
Maybe i prefer to look at plants in nature or on a shelf better. Loved the Ecuagenera table display...
but what I liked was really too pricey or needed cool temperatures.

anyway here are some images

Thanks. Was not too much in the mood to take photos. And i even got pulled over by a cop when i started driving back. No ticket tho luckily. There were some huge masd. Anyone know what is it? And that pink fuchsia dendrobium? Saw it at the bbg also but no tag
