It's not a yellow Zygopetalum but a cross, this is what Camille wrote to me; Zygo mackayi x Promenaea xanthina. The shape and spots come from the Zygo, the color from the Prom.
This cross is called Propetalum Mathina.

I noticed the large wood vanda type baskets. Are the plants potted in them, or are the pots just placed in there for display? They look interesting to me. I have some little Tolu pots placed together in a 12" vanda basket. They are used as a centerpiece.

The pots were just placed in the baskets and decorated with spanish moss for the show, but it looked really great! I think I might do something like that, it really gives the effect that they are growing barerooted in the baskets.
I know you love Vandas Marilyn, and I don't know if you looked at the pics on webshots, but I think you'll like these!

Lovely plants and photos, Camille. Thanks for sharing with us. That last photo is great -- makes me want to be there to see it. I'm amazed at the number of basket plants. You wouldn't see that here but none of our shows are held in conservatories either.

Oh my a free Twinkle. I'm so jealous. Should have asked my mom to go (still living in NL). I'm sure she'll be sad she missed it when I tell her. Some great pictures Camille!!
