What a show, Peter. Eye candy, for sure.

Yeah, I'm going to have to get me one of those (thelychiton) speciosums.
They are just *too* impressive.

The Maribyrnong orchid society staged arguably the best of their 3 or 4
annual orchid shows yesterday. The Maribyrnong Club is based in the
western suburbs of Melbourne, Vic., Australia and has a many members. A
lot of great orchids were on display and most noteworthy were the
Dendrobium (thelychiton) speciosums. The grand prize winner was (yet
again) a bridal veil - Dockrillia teretifolium " Newbold'
Cymbidium Pearl Dawson was very eye catching (Plant photo failed) along
with Cym Ten Pin 'No.1', but Masdevallia pachyura fluttered many a heart
there! Dendrobium speciosum 'Taipan' X 'Watellow' was outstanding.
