For years I've wanted one of these.. N. veitchi " candy striped".. I asked the owner about it and it turns out he has eight of them as big as this so hopefully they'll flower soon.

anyways thats all I got from it... I would have taken some pics of the auction table items but everyone wanted a look at the items. If I can remember correctly the adrian slack went for 70, the reptilian rose for 40, and the three baby Edwardsianas went for 210 all together (from a anonymous BA vendor).

If you went please let me know so I can put some faces on the people I saw ( I was the one in the jacket bidding up the eddies next to my dad). Overall it was pretty great and I came home with a nice specimen of N. (veitchi X lowii)X boschiana which certainly makes a great Bday present!

Post pics if ya got em!

Thanks for sharing. The candy stripe looks spectacular.
 
$210 for three eddies? Aye carumba!
 
I only stayed for about fifteen minutes. The crowd was un-navigable, and several times I had someone cut in front of me, mid conversation! (Not a CP peep, just random visitors)

what I saw was NICE, and I envy the lucky bloke that got the eddies.

I was the gal in the green knit cap and BRIGHT tie dye handbag.
 
Looks like fun! That N. veitchii was beautiful. Good job with the event Brokken :)
 
Lance: Thanks for the effort posting some pic at the show. That veitchii is pretty awesome. It caused me to stop breathing for awhile when i saw it.

Lil Stinkpot: I am really sorry that people cut in like that. I hope we would have better spacing next year, and less rude visitors.

Jeff
