Thanks, Christian. That was quite the experience. The northiana at the end is really something special..

Great pics! Thanks for sharing... If I lived near that place, I would be in great financial trouble.

I saw some of Sam's older photos of it, and the progression is quite amazing. Pictures just don't due it justice!

haha what did you get? I can imagine my bank account draining fast if I went there. Did you manage to see the HL greenhouses?

Ohman that brings back great memories of when I went to go visit a few years ago now. Great pics - when I went to go visit it was to go snatch up a few of his plants so hopefully you managed to nab a few goodies too.
