Not as impressed by the winners as I usually am. Definitely disappointed in best of show selection. Large and Extra Large category seem to be the strongest entries this year in my opinion. My two favorites of the ones you posted are second place in the extra large and third place in the large category. The best of show would have been second to last in my opinion on all the first place finishers.(Wasnt impressed by the Paludarium winner at all) Maybe its just the photo of a photo so I will wait until I see them much closer to really judge.

Mary and I had a great time. The speakers were great and the FAN tour was very nice. I am exhausted because it was a busy weekend. I am going to need to go to work to get a break. :)

Thanks to the AGA for hosting the event.

And finally, a very brief synopsis of each speaker's presentation at the convention on Saturday.

I'm too exhausted to writeup up anything more comprehensive. (As Rick said, we'll need to go to work to get a break -- LOL). Enjoy!

ADG posted up a 5 minute summary video from the convention. Has a lot of shots from the FAN tour for those of you interested in where a lot of our plants come from:
