World Orchid Conference Photos Part Two
A mix of everything in this group of photos:
A bunch of very big Dens
coccinea anyone?
Yen Corona - love the colour
Some nice Paphs
There were a few Phallies at the show
Paphs were displayed like this all over the place
One of my favourite displays, this little 'jars' contained things like pleuro's and Lepanthes
This was an awesome display
I love Tolumnias
People went to a lot of effort

That coccinea is amazing!!!  And love that shot with all the Tolumnias.
How many hours did you spend wandering around there? It seems huge.

I didn't know you did some judging there, that must be quite an honor. 20 hours isn't too much, I think I could have easily spent that much time there!

Thank You for sharing with us your wonderful experience. I lived vicariously through you...but next year: I will be there! I just got to see all these in my lifetime...so while I am young and strong and still have the money to spend...

Bud, you'll have to save up to go to Pretoria in 2014, or Ecuador in 2017, that's where the next WOCs are held. Unfortunately for us, Montreal seems to have lost its bid to host the 2017 WOc.
