Must admit I'm still not sure if I dis/like the variegted plants, although they are all such good specimens can't see anyone turning them away from the greenhouses

Hi all !
Julie, since the beginning of this EXPO in November till the ending within this month, there is about 4 million people visitted.
But the ornamental potted plant show and contest have been hold about 10 day, 20-31 Jan, there would be more than 1000 people attened per day,I think.
These are the outside display and international gardens.
South African Garden
Belgium Garden
They use Bromeliads for decoration.
Tropical Garden
Xerophytic Garden
Roy...yes we do, the scale insect, a really bad pests
Hi Juan,about Peyote, I've heard it's prohibited to keep L.williamsii in US right?
Who gonna eat such a pretty cactus
Tina, you will love these variegated Haworthia...

Wow, so many people... the place looks huge, and what a great atmosphere.
I agree about williamsii... a much bigger kick is got from looking at it.
Those variegated Haworthia are beautiful!
I have an idea for next year's forum outing.....
