I decided to create an exhibit at the 2002 New Hampshire Orchid Society show.  The first lesson learned was that our orchids will not always cooperate with the show schedule.  Although I expected to have more orchids in bloom, many of them did not bloom in time to use them in the display.

Even so, we had a nice selection of blooming plants to display at the show.  I was honored to learn the judges chose the exhibit to win the "Michael Wirth Memorial Trophy" for first time exhibitors.
