Okay here goes, Krull-Smith is still in business and doing just fine. June Simpson opened June's Orchid Estate and purchased Frank's entire Paph breeding program from stud plants down to flasks. I believe June's original intention was to have a wholesale operation and possibly an iternet store. They went completely wholesale at the end of January. As to how you missed this, beats me, this happened over the course of almost three years.

I believe that he said that he wanted to spend more time concentrating on Phal crosses.
