Hausermann greenhouse visit.
I've ordered a few orchids from Hausermann's in Chicago with good success
and on a business trip there this past week I checked and they were only 5 miles from where I was working so one day I spent my lunch time walking through the green houses. Since it was the lunch hour and the dead of winter I almost had the place to my self. What an amazing place. I took some pictures but they just can't convey the depth of beauty that surrounds you. I had one problem - how am I going to pick something to take home with me since I had flown and it was 10 degrees and snowing. I picked a small paph in bloom - picture posted over in ABPO - and decided I would just wrap it in a box and take it on the plane. Of course the first x-ray machine it went through it got stuck and I could see it being knocked around by the parade of plastic bins going through. When I pointed it out to security they said don't worry it would come out eventually. Well you know what I wanted to say but I didn't want to miss my plane because I was in lockup. All ended well and I have one more orchid for my collection. -- Mark Edson Waukomis Oklahoma, USA |
