Vacation recommendations
Thanks for the insight Mick.
I too do not care for the cotton candy, but prefer the more hard to find.
If I have to decide between the two it will be Redlands.

D,
Regarding the Miami Show, if you like second rate orchid hybrids then the
Miami Show is great... otherwise it is just one big bore with all it fake
"classy" ambiance, red carpets, elevator music, and overpriced hybrids.
In a real show (eg the Redlands) I prefer to have/see more tables lined
with
unusual hard-to-find plants for sale... not space-hogging over-glorified
cheesy orchid displays of pink hybrid phals. But then again that is just
my
preference I suppose.

PS... ever see any new-blood/exciting vendors in the Miami show? I think
not. It is the same old broken down boring (mostly Floridian) vendors
year
after year after year with the same old boring hybrids with you-know-who
dictating every aspect of the show and adwarding himself a couple of
awards
each year. Yuck.
