The Orchtoberfest was at E.F.G. Orchids in Deland, Fl. www.efgorchids.com I stumbled on to the add for Orchtoberfest by accident looking for a place locally to take my daughter to get pumpkins, hay ride, etc. and it said they were having a plant sale so I decided to check it out. I went in without much expectations and I was very pleasantly elated when I walked through the door of the greenhouse. They had soooOOOooo many orchids, epi's, Huernia's, Stapelia's, desert roses, ferns, bonsai, plumeria, bat plants, etc. Ok so I bought a couple things, then went back the next day and got a couple more things...lol
Their website says they've been in business for 65 years and are apparently one of the oldest orchid wholesalers in the country. The people there were very nice and helpful and the plants were very nice and well maintained. I'll post a few more pictures...
Black bat plant
White bat plant
money tree bonsai
Check out the huernia's in sea shells, really neat!
Epi's, huernia's and bromelliad's oh my! (haha)
Other neat stuff...
Wow, really nice. I feel a day trip coming on.

Wonderful pics, thanks! If I went to a sale like that I'd have to take X amount of cash and leave the credit cards at home.
I've been looking for a nice Ric Rac plant like those in that last picture. Wish I was up that way more often.

Pure , I worked up there Friday and Saturday. I work for them on/off as needed. I also end up buying alot of plants...they are literally 5 minutes from me. George and Paula are great people, and there is really no other place like it right around here.
