He’s a great guy and a good grower. He’s exhibited his plants at the Scottish Orchid Shows and has made his own crosses.

I was in Wick many moons ago, on the longest day. There was a Flower Show on and my late wife and I decided to splash out the 25p and see it! The dominant displays were what we used to call "Sand Posies" when I was at Primary School. Decidedly lackluster florally but then my mind contemplated bringing in a specimen Cattleya and gauging the shock value. It would have been an hilarious spoof.
