This year’s conference theme is “Where New and Old World Orchids Meet.” For those of us who don’t have our plane tickets or reservations at Singapore’s remarkable new Marina Bay Sands, there are many more orchid shows around the globe to enjoy.

The Pecanland Mall show was really nice. I didn’t have enough money. A few that I really liked were high priced. There were some inexpensive ones too but I have that kind already.

There are so many Flower shows in Australia! There must be a lot of special occasions there. Maybe I need to go for a visit?
