Rhs autumn show

Yes, I think we'll wait for Rob's verification.  I'm sure I read the labels correctly though...  but I probably didn't.  As far as shocked plants go, there was one species in particular in which you could tell it was indeed in shock: N. bicalcarata.  I've had my own plants in the past go into shock quite easily (from dryness), yet easily survive 40F conditions.

True inspiration for anyone who grows neps. Fantastic eye candy! One day...one day I will have plants that look that good...if it kills me (or my wife kills me, lol).
A big, fat contratulations to the folks at Borneo Exotics. You are officially the masters of the nepiverse.

Hopefully Rob will be back soon and can look at this thread. I want to know if the pinkish veitchii with the striped peristome is one of his cllones he sells...


Cheers,

Joe

We're ba-ack.  Proudly clutching our gold medal.

Nice photos Amori and good to meet you at the show too.

We'll be putting up a feature on the show on our website in a few hours time.

That plant is talangensis x maxima and was definitely labeled correctly - I've checked  

The Dutch nurseries sometimes put out that hybrid but theirs is a different clone with (I think) inferior coloration.

Just a note on the special price of N. truncata at the show. It really was a special promotional thing only for the show as the centerpiece was a N. truncata. The price is usually much higher than that. Most of the folks who came to the show were pensioners and non CP fans since it was held on weekdays and there is a sales resistance with that group to anything over ten quid.
