Tropical Plant Industry Exibition 2005
A little over a year ago my brother and I went to Ft. Lauderdale to the South Florida Tropical Growers Trade Convention. The show was held in one of the largest convention centers on the east coast of Florida and by the end of the day I think we both would rather have taken a long nap then face the 90 mile drive back home.
My brother has been a grower for Yoders for almost 30 years now, so there were quite a few people there who knew him. He is also growing and breeding gingers at his own nursery, some which I will be posting later.
Besides seeing alot of plants that I'd give my eye teeth for a pinch of, I had my camera out. The orchids in this post haven't been shared, I found them when I was searching for pictures to use in another post.
These three pictures

V.rhynchostylis gigantea
I have learned one very important lesson - always and I mean always carry a notebook with me so I can write these names down. Oh and one other thing, I don't own any of these orchids, I'd be happy to take donations!
