1. Go
2. Take a foam beer cooler and a 1-quart jar (with lid)
3. Buy something small, in bud or very early bloom, that fits in the cooler
4. There has to be a microwave there somewhere - warm up a quart of water - not too hot - put it in the cooler with the orchid
5. Carry your orchid out with no fear of freezing
6. Take it home, enjoy the orchid
7. Nip that anticipation in the bud!

Oh you should go! That looks like a nice show with a great vendors list. The National Capital Orchid auction is this Sunday here near Baltimore. I can't imagine going to an orchid auction! I would be in so much trouble or angry because I lost in bidding.
Orchid shows are too tempting, and I'm weak. If you go, take lots of pictures. Enjoy!
Come join us! A fantastic show each year will only make you want to come back for years to come! The venue(Dearborn Mkt. in Howell,NJ) has a lovely gh where the vendors sell and various soc. set-up outstanding displays,esp. our own DCOS! Plenty of pkg. and a beautiful touch of spring.Be there or be square!
