Pijaya, I fully quote Chris, and add: That's the only reason why I hope never to visit Thailand , too many temptations

Wow, what magnificent plants, it even makes me want some sanseveria's, yes to the Ario wrinkles & I'll have 2 of the fluffy loph:mex:.

The rosette's on sticks are really good for photography, it was one of the things at the National that the cards are laying flat so you often can't see the winners.

What are the rules re grafted plants?, do you have to say if they are ??.

Ooh those Astro's::o & Ario crests, must stop drooling:woho:

Tina, I have booked already the fluffy one of link n. 4, page 4, n. 35, together with the Fero n. 34 (what's it's name?)

Oh WOW!!! Pijaya! what a fabulous show of cacti, I'm sure you've made us all envious - our efforts in gloomy, dank conditions in the UK pale in comparison to what can be grown in Thailand. And, as a variegate-lover, some of those plants make me really drool! Especially the Uebelmannia! Your job as judge can't have been an easy one!

Hi Pijaya, a fantastic show of plants, thanks for sharing. The Turbinicarpus valdezianus is the largest example by far I've ever seen, an amazing plant.

[Herts Mike]

And such young judges!

Different to the decrepit old geezers we have....
