Andy I went to the Bristol and District Orchid Society Show yesterday and was pleasantly surprised to see some of your plants available from one of the vendors. They had Finger of Suspicion, Harriett Ishitani, Cliff Hutchings and Cali Night all in bloom and at £40 ($60 US) each apart from the Cliff Hutchings. The CH was a magnificent plant in full bloom and cost $75. I would have bought it if I could have transported it home safely but was afraid that it would not make it in my car. I already have the others via Bert Ruiter.
I hope this a sign that some of the better quality plants you breed are heading in this direction.

Re: New Horizon Orchids in the UK
Terry,
I'm sure all sorts of good new hobbyist things will continue to flow from Ruiter Orchideen! They are expanding their range of offerings all the time and one of Bert's new seedling hybrids was so tempting, I got three for myself last month... Never too proud to buy a good orchid from another hybridizer. Guess the plants you saw were from Burnham Nurseries, Brian and now Sara, his daughter, have been wonderful friends and customers for over 30 years. My, how time flies.
