Love the Brassavola. I was having a bit of luck with orchids several years ago. I think you have reignited the passion.

As a plant (and cat) person, you shall be more than welcome.

I hope to get a complete list of plants in the auction about 4-6 days before the auction. If so, I will make it available to anyone asking in a PM. It should also be posted on the society web site:
