As noted in another forum, in an attempt to meet some of the forum members, I'm offering a free seedling to every forum member (Slipper Orchid Forum in this case) who attends the AOS Members Meeting and Show in Bloomington, Minnesota. Here are the requirements:

1. Must attend the AOS Show and Members meeting in Minnesota this April. (I'll give you the seedling there.)

2. You must post to this topic or PM me to let me know your preference from the categories below and the day you plan on attending.

3.Posting deadline will be Sunday, April 17

The web link with info on vendors, speakers, etc. http://www.orchidsocietyofminnesota.com/orchid_show/

Pick one of the following categories for your seedling:
1. Paph species
2. Paph hybrid
3. Phrag hybrid
4. Phal hybrid
The seedlings will be anywhere from small to NBS, but will be well established.

That is a very generous offer! :)Too bad, I can't make it, too far for me! :lol: Keep us posted and let us know which lucky member gets it.

LAST CALL! If you plan on attending the show and would like a seedling, let me know by the end of this week. :)

WolfCreek, I got yours ready.

I've got 4 yes and 1 maybe so far. That's between here and the OSF.

I'll be there with bells or at least bell-bottoms on, but you've already got my seedlings ready. Two weeks? Dang that's coming up fast! 8)

Wish it were possible to be there, I'd have liked to hear that "new directions in Phrag breeding" talk, but a bit more of a drive than I can handle, I'm afraid.

It would be nice to meet you, Heather. :) Perhaps there will be opportunities in the future when Julie and I can meet you.

I'll be there, but I probably don't need a seedling... Have to be there in time for the AOS committee meetings Thursday morning, I'll probably leave Saturday.

I'm driving since the airlines seem to be trying to make up for lost time in the Minneapolis market. I'd call it highway robbery, but that is too generous.

I look forward to meeting you. I will be helping with plant registration on Wed., available to help the judges on Thursday, attending the preview show on Thursday evening, and I'm planning on attending the Slipper
Orchid Alliance meeting on Friday. Oh, I also share responsibility for supervising the ticket sales for the sales and show area Fri-Sun. I suspect we may cross paths.
