Aroid Show 2006

I am not sure if many of you know this but their is a aroid society. The society is amazing with tons of great collectors and botanist who have over the years kept this group going. Each year they have a show which they show new plants have contest and yes sell plants to the public. I would say anyone who loves aroids should look it up. I plan to be their this year again as I have for the past 4 years. Hopefully I can see some of you their?

Here is a picture of just one of the many booths at the show. Guest speaks are in from all over the world and some very famous botanist and breeders are walking around in the crowds.

Where and when? Look at all the amorphs.

The show is September 16th and 17th, 2006 at Fairchild tropical gardens in Miami Florida.

Here is a link to the details. Their is a auction for aroids online and all funds go to the society. Some extremely rare things will be auctioned off.

I'm making plans already. Will you have a stand/booth. How exciting, I never get to see the cool stuff in person. Do you have a list of what you bring.
