What a nice surprise, Ursula. It is just beautiful.

Elaine, great color on your Blc. Anduril 'Krull's Scarlet'. I'll bet they are referring to Jim Krull. Did you buy that one up in Apopka?

I've just been loading orchids into the truck for tomorrow's Tampa Orchid Club meeting and show so I've been checking names. Six out of seven of the name tags had at least one error. Do you know what the correct name for our Phaius Microburst 'Wild Thing' is? Try Gastrophaius (Gp.) Micro Burst? Also, I have found Phaius spelled Phiaus in many official looking documents. What's with that? I have been posting pics of my beautiful Cym. Cotton Club. Now I find there is no such thing. It is Cym. Cotton Candy. My Blc. Golden Tang is now Rby. Golden Tang. My Blc. Ruben's Verde is now a Rsc. Ruben's Verde and so on. I'm telling you, I had to change 6 out of 7 tags for the show.

Jim
