[Aroid-l] 2nd Annual Aroid show?

From: denis at skg.com (Denis Rotolante) on 2007.10.10 at 13:42:16(16444) If somebody decides to do a California show, the plants displayed and sold will be mainly California plants. California is very protective of its plant industry and does not welcome with open arms any plants from other states, particularly Florida. So shipping in plants from my nursery is not a possibility. I most hardily suggest that California Aroiders get together, form a show committee and decide when a where and how they wish to do a show. Do not worry about the East Coast.

Hello Aroiders, I would like to make the suggestion of switching coasts annually so that those of us on the west coast could have a better chance of attending. I also do like the idea of taking the plants to the people and having the show do some sort of country tour hitting a different location each year that highlights a botanical garden or location that would have a display of aroids for us to drool over. I do suppose one of the most difficult issues would be the transporting of plants for sale. Obviously a lot of the suppliers for the Florida show are from that area and only have to load up a truck to deliver the goods.
