There were many good-natured orchid growers on hand at the show last week at the Botanical Gardens, but I think I talked to one of the nicest, Dick Sauger. Here’s a little video of our discussion for you.

355 to go, eh? If anyone can do it, it's you--you've gotta be working on that many bulbs this year, so you've clearly got the skills to pay (er, ring up) the bills.
He's got 400 orchids and likely 600 next year? It's good that you can spend time with people that help your orchid collection seem reasonable.
That was a fun video to watch ~ Mr. Sauger had some beautiful Orchids. I can't quite imagine looking after 400 Orchids. I like the ones that you got ~ 5 sounds more manageable to me!!
Sounds like a full time job! Great little interview, I just love plant enthusiasts...I don't think I could hone in on just one kind of flower though...good luck on your new babies!
What a cool guy. Enjoyed your blog - posts and pics - will be back to visit.
