Julie and I just got back from an after hours open house at Orchids, Ltd. that Jerry, Jason, family, and crew hosted for the Orchid Society of Minnesota. It was 95F outside, but with the evaporative cololers blowing over 55F well water, the greenhouses were very comfortable. Everyone had a great time and I came back with entirely too many plants. Here's my haul:

Phrag. Mini Grande (pearcei x warscewiczianum)
Phrag. Robin Redbreast (Robrt Palm x besseae flavum)
2 Paph barbigerums (in bud)
Paph angthong album (3rd generation breeding, in bud?)
2 Paph fairrieanum (different crosses)
2 Paph (grodefroyae x Bella Lucia)
Paph (Muriel Constance x concolor) in bud
Paph (Irish Eyes x[Blanche Sawyer x Freckles])
Paph (Grizzly Hill x Double Bell)

The Mini Grande photo on OL is beautiful and I'm almost tempted to get one but I have already ordered a few plants so maybe next time and it will go on my list.:D
