That's a strange color on tha vanda. Great idea to take a picture of the labels too. I'll have to try and remember that.

At this moment in time, my camera flashed that the photo card was full so I took up my new babies and headed for the door. Not having cats, I'm not sure I will make it back to the show tomorrow. It was a fun day.

Kathy, I like that Vanda too and the C. Black Jack got my attention.

Ursula, I must have spent 10 minutes looking at that weird Bulbo. That flat twisted spike was about 18 inches tall. I've never seen anything like it.
