Orchid show was last weekend, the garden show is this coming weekend at
the
RBG.
The show was very enjoyable by the way.

Yes, it was. And I picked up three plants: two nobile type dendrobiums and
a mini-catt (for bargain basement prices at that!).

But there is a much bigger orchid show next weekend in Toronto (check out
the SOOS website for details). That must of course take priority over a
plain, ol' garden show. Right? After all, IMHO anyway, the only garden
plants that have a hope of competing with the orchids are the lilies and
irises (which should come as no surprise since, unless I am going senile in
my old age, the irises are quite closely related to the orchids, perhaps
more so than any other group of plants).

Cheers,
