Subject: [Aroid-l] More IAS show (Sept. 18-19, 2010) info ...
Aroiders, more info on the IAS show which is in 2 weeks. As usual, see http://aroid.org/show/ for more information:
One reason people come to the annual IAS show is that it is a place to acquire rare plants at very attractive prices. Every year the array of commercial aroid offerings on the show floor is unsurpassed by any other venue. And the best thing is that you can speak directly with the vendors, availing yourself of their expert opinions, and pick out the specimens you like best. What's more, when you buy them, you have them right there in your hand. No need to wait and worry about when they might arrive at your house and what shipping travails they may have experienced in transit. A bird in the hand, as they say.
Then, there's the auction. The auction is the place to find really one-of-a-kind plants, and sometimes two-of-a-kind plants. Prices have been historically what one might call a "steal", although some of us are working hard so that prices in the future will be boosted by attracting more bidders. So this year might be your chance to secure astonishingly rare plants at very modest prices. Auction details will be available, as they become known to us, on the IAS website.
Rare plants. Isn't that the reason you're a member? Get them at the show.
