anyone ever been to their orchid thing? i was contemplating going, but it's 100 mi away and gas is $3 a gallon and it's $14 to get in and most of the grounds won't be in bloom anyway...... but if it's spectacular, i can be persuaded to go. :)

According to the ad in 'Orchids' the sale will be 3/28 - 30. Vendors will be Andy's Orchids, Cal-Orchid, Celebrate Orchdis, Create-A-Scene, Ecuagenera, H&R, Hoosier, Just Pat, Kelleys Korner, Krull Smith (maybe you can get some of those besseae hybrids) Lois Duffin, Miranda from Brazil, Parkside, Piping Rock (maybe you can get one of those legal kovachii hybrids), Seagrove, Stony Brook, Waldor, and Woodland.
IIRC Longwood was one of the olde hobbyist/hybridizers from teh 30 &40s.
i was actully wondering just about the conservatory display, which is february-march; but then i remembered about the show/sale and figured if i do go, it would be then (hopefully with a carload of people).
but it's actually $16 to get in, and that's disinclining me to go up there at all, i must admit.....

As if $16 would be anything compared to what you'd spend at the sale. (annoying emoticon here)
