Default longwood gardens?

According to the ad in 'Orchids' the sale will be 3/28 - 30. Vendors will
be Andy's Orchids, Cal-Orchid, Celebrate Orchdis, Create-A-Scene,
Ecuagenera, H&R, Hoosier, Just Pat, Kelleys Korner, Krull Smith (maybe you
can get some of those besseae hybrids) Lois Duffin, Miranda from Brazil,
Parkside, Piping Rock (maybe you can get one of those legal kovachii
hybrids), Seagrove, Stony Brook, Waldor, and Woodland.

IIRC Longwood was one of the olde hobbyist/hybridizers from teh 30 &40s.

...
anyone ever been to their orchid thing? i was contemplating going,
but it's 100 mi away and gas is $3 a gallon and it's $14 to get in and
most of the grounds won't be in bloom anyway...... but if it's
spectacular, i can be persuaded to go.
