Love the Brassavola. I was having a bit of luck with orchids several years ago. I think you have reignited the passion.
@bigben_again , road trip?
As a plant (and cat) person, you shall be more than welcome.
I hope to get a complete list of plants in the auction about 4-6 days before the auction. If so, I will make it available to anyone asking in a PM. It should also be posted on the society web site:
Update: There will be 350+ plants in this auction. If you would like to see what plants, the auction listing can be found here:
