m3rma1d - you did an outstanding job taking all these pictures. Were you like me taking notes as you went along writing down the names? Sorry we didn't meet up but hope you had a great time. Did you go home with any prizes? I know, silly question.
m3rma1d, great photos. I would have to say that my favorite of the bunch is Raspberry Sizzle. I also like the Russian Pearl sport. But that's because my mom came from Ukraine.
They are all so pretty. Did you have a 'secretary' to take notes and names for you? That is some great job you did. I know when I take pics of my plants, I have to stop, write it down, and then go on to the next. What a chore!
Thanks for all the pretty flowers.
Wonderful photos.Thanks so much for posting them!

"Were you like me taking notes as you went along writing down the names?"
I took shots that had the cards visible, but then cropped most of them but had the original to see the name :-)
"Sorry we didn't meet up but hope you had a great time."
Sorry I didn't get to meet you, too :-( But I had a blast and will definately make this a yearly trip now!
"Did you go home with any prizes? I know, silly question."
Do you mean prizes from showing? I don't show... Not yet.. maybe not ever LOL :-D
But I did BUY myself far too many "prizes" So many, I had to leave half at Lenny's house in NJ 'cos it was too much for me to carry home on the bus!! LOL I got about a dozen minis & 3 petrocosmeas

What a sharpie your are. Very smart. !! I would have tried to get the closest picture and write the names down. I keep forgeting that I can crop the pictures. I think I should start taking something for this old brain. ^_^
wonderful pictures,thanks for shareing.Shows are so much fun, not to mention all the plants we wind up buying, & then where to put them when you get home. lol

Thanks for the pictures.
I see Rob's name is still around as is Ness. I grew AVs about 15-20 yrs ago. It was a fun thing to do. As easy as they are to propagate there can be several hundred in practically no time at all.
