This monthly show for November was held @ Taman Tasik Taping, Taiping Perak on 14 Nov 2010 from 9.00am - 2.00pm. This show was organized by Taiping Orchid Society. There are more than 100 orchid plants entered this monthly show.
My partner and I just brought only 10 orchids plants today...normally more than 15 plants. Preparation for this show was quite rush, because we got the newsletter 1 week before the show. Anyway, we tried our best to prepare the best orchid plants we have to this show.
We departed from my house in Kepala Batas, Penang, around 8.40am and arrived there around 10.40am. The classification and judging start on 11.20am onwards.
Our plants only won 4 prizes in 4 categories, but it's ok for us, the main point for us to support the society.
The Best Plant of the Show is Lc. Hawaian Treat, with more than 8 spikes and have more than 30 flowers. It's quite presentable even it's not perfect. The Best Reserve Plant was crowned to Trichocentrum 'hybrid' with 4 spikes and more than 100 flowers. This plants cannot get the best plant of the show because the arrangement is too crowded and the color also not so contrast and presentable.

Congratulations on getting so many prizes
Salam.Not bad you got 4 prizes, congrats! Even though I dont know any of their names, I really admire those beautiful orchids especially blue n purple colour ones and also the last one, quite unique!
Congratulation. Very pretty orchids.
Wonderful post - especially like the different Phalaenopsis species.
Congratulations for winning 4 prizes! That's really great! The first prize plant is really beautiful, no wonder it is a winner! The last one is really interesting, I've never seen it before, and it is a real beauty!
I do agree that the last one is the most unusual. Orchids are really beautiful and congratulations on the winnings!
Congratulations!!! Happy for you. Why did you make it sound as if you won very few awards? How many did you expect? I wonder if your orchids were tired with all that travelling.
What beautiful orchids!
