[Greenman]

The Coalition of Orchid Species will be hosting their first Orchid Symposium at the Fairchild Tropical Botanic Gardens in Coral Gables Florida on Sunday, August 12, 2007.

Tickets are $35 and include continental breakfast and a boxed lunch. There will also be American Orchid Society judging. No tickets will be sold at the door

Featured speakers include AOS president Carlos Fighetti on the "other" Phalenopsis species; Francisco Mirandaon the Orchids of Brazil; Leon Glicenstein from Hoosier Orchids on the Orchids of Costa Rica, and Marc Hachadorian on the Pescatoria/Bollea alliance. Two of these speakers will also be selling plants.

If anyone in the Florida area is interested, please let me know and I will send you the information on obtaining tickets.

I highly recommend this symposium for anyone interested in species.
