Jo,

Time will fly so quickly. The next thing you know it's here. Will you be going? It won't be as big as the Pacific Orchid Expo. But I always try to go to an orchid show to see what they have...er...more like what I can buy.

Hi Arlene,

I definitely want to go...I haven't been to an orchid show before, and I certainly don't want to miss such an opportunity to add to my modest collection - shh, don't tell my husband

The only thing, though - I have volunteered to help with a garden tour; I need to check the dates but I have this awful feeling that the tour is the same weekend.....

Cheers,
Jo

drey415,

The price of an orchid depends on each grower and size/type of orchid. Having attended several orchid shows, I would say the average is in the $20-$30 range. I suggest you shop and compare prices. If you come across on the last one, buy it!

Oh, if you enter a raffle and are lucky, then the orchid is free!
