Default ORCHID SHOW PHOTOS

Hi all..
Just back from the local orchid show (Bellinger valley orchid society) in a neighbouring town..Bellingen (pop5000) is a little hamlet up the valley with a reputation for quality orchids and growers..
I usually go every year to drool over the blooms and this year was no exception..The bargain bin had some beautiful catts (in bloom) for $15-$20..The vandas and cymbids were spectaculer..I have taken a few photos for everyone to have a look at..Hope you enjoy..
My little collection has a lot of buds now bursting..Will post some photos soon..There are a few with no names..John

We could learn a lot from crayons: some are sharp, some are pretty, some are dull, some have weird names, and all are different colors....but they all exist very nicely in the same box. ...Hmmm? .

Yay for orchid shows!! Those Cymbs are awesome too - I wish I had room for huge plants like that, and I know they have such a lovely fragrance. That yellow catt is gorgeous!! Thanks so much for taking pictures for us to see
