Nice one Mark. I can see why you were worried about it getting crushed by
security at the airport. I was in Chicago last November but couldn't get out to Hausermann's. Do you have any photos of the set up as I would like see what I missed.

I took some with my cell phone camera but they are terrible. I've decided to
find a digital camera to take with me from now on. "John Varigos" wrote in message om... Nice one Mark. I can see why you were worried about it getting crushed by security at the airport.

Do you have any photos of the set up as I would like see what I missed. Cheers John There are several people that 'live in ABPO' that occasionally drop by Hausermanns. I am sure we can get some photos posted someday soon. We usually go in September to the Chicagoland Festival. But others or lurkers must live closer and go more often. It is a convoluted place as they keep adding gh. It used to be a row side by side -- maybe 7 and the last 3 or 4 were just for cut cattleya production. If you can imagine benches 3 tier shelving bottom - mid-level top down the other side mid level and bottom. Now each of these plants was in a pot around the 12 inches plus size. Each plant was a standard Catt. and had it's own private drip line to water it. If you were there near Easter, Mother's Day, Prom season -- etc great sections were in bloom. Otherwise it was just huge cattleya's as ugly as they come. Across the main aisle they had added closed gh for phal production and working space. One of the center houses held the growing flasks, the flasking working are is near the front and you could often see bottles spinning. One of the smaller gh held species. Now - you will find I think it is 2 gh that connect with the far end gh and the show-room gh on the west side. Here we usually find Cocktail Catts as Hausermann's call them. The bloom 4-6 flowers and are a bit more refined that the corsage Catt of the 40-50's. On the East side in front is office and packing. then from the show room back (maybe 3 gh in) they have added working gh. Most have Phals or are closed to traffic. There is an east end cap of a gh running north and south to connect the far walks together. The show room is set with tables in a circle and changing display tables in the center. Generally one group - say the 'Wildcatts' were in a side display to show their variety and the fact that many were in bloom. These displays are all blooming plants most are snickered with their price. Often one long side had big Catts sitting on the floor and on a narrow table above. If they were in the process of repotting - back bulbs may or may not be available at good discounts. The rest of that gh held Epi, neofineta hybrids, and a couple of rows of Paphs. The walk down the center of the complex has a bench with a mini picket fence so as you leave to explore you are tempted to reach over the fence to gain a phal that has been priced.

Thanks for the verbal tour Sue. Sounds like one could spend a few hours
just browsing. Much appreciated. Cheers John "SuE" wrote in message ... On Mon, 5 Feb 2007 07:54:04 +1100, "John Varigos" wrote: Nice one Mark.

Thanks Sue.
The Orchid God tried to do me in. A florescent light pulled loose and landed right on the plant without breaking a bulb. No damage to the paph other than dumping it, but it neatly sliced the seed pod off a phal that I was wanting to experiment with. "SuE" wrote in message ...
