WOW!
Talk about a bloomer!
I've never seen so many blooms on one plant before.
Lucky You.

She is the one that I posted pictures of in the flower show. Those
great round Deutsche Kaiserin plants. I was told that they were about
10 years old be her head greenhouse manager. They have a number of
full time people keeping the greenhouses going. I remember the
manager telling me that the reason for the plastic pots was so that
when they took plants into the main house, just across the lawn from
the Tudor Mansion, they had to be careful not to chip the fine vases.
If they used clay there would be danger of just that.
She is a nice person and allowed us (a group from the Horticultural
Society) to visit her numerous greenhouses. They don't sell anything
that I know about. She has beautiful flowers year round in her house,
all grown in her greenhouses. She also helps make the flower show
special. Not just her, but many others, including various clubs and
others that love plants as you and I do. Also the commercial growers,
of which my favorite is Waldor Orchids, of New Jersey. She has also
given lots to building funds and walking around you see the Hamilton
name on hospitals, and other public places. They like naming things
after her.
I have no interest in Waldor except to love their plants. Not
suggesting you buy from them. I think you already know about them.
