Huge Iwanagara Appleblossom!

Hi everyone. I went to Home Depot today to buy some paint and of course I had to check out the orchids. I saw this one sitting there in bud and picked it up to see what it was. And much to my delight it was an Appleblossom! I said "man this thing is huge, and only 25 bucks!!!" I through it in my cart and made off like a bandit!

Nice find. I have been looking for one. Maybe I pick one up at the show tomorrow. I understand they have a awesome scent.

There's two shows tommorrow, right? One at the Fair Grounds and one at the Doubletree Miami Mart/Airport Hotel and Exhibition Center. I don't know why there would be two on the same weekend.

I didn't know about one at the fairgrounds. The Tamiami show was at the fairgrounds last month. I went to the one at the Miami Mart today and it was fun!
