Aloha Nelson! So many vendors, so many beautiful orchids, what an amazing event! You guys look like you had a lot of fun! And congratulations on the orchid that is named after you 💚 Mahalo for taking us along 🤙🏽
Aloha Kelly! Glad you enjoyed the episode. I hope I can host you at a future show in Florida.
I can’t even tell you what a pleasure it was to meet you and the clan! Blanca,Melissa, Marly, Nelson,Teresita I didn’t see Roxy. All of you are just next level for me! I love orchids more so now after meeting you all in person.
Awe! So glad you were able to meet the gang. Roxy was all over the place. lol! It’s hard to keep all the chicks together in one spot. 🐥🐥🐥
Your superpower is keeping your orchid plants looking like you just brought them from the nursery. You are a master grower!
Awe! Thank you. 🙏🏼💚🤗
Such an awesome video!!! The vendors really brought amazing orchids!! So much fun and so much to look at. Great seeing you and chatting!
Hi Emmanuel. Great talking to you over by Plantío. See you in the next outing. 🤗
Thank you for another wonderful video! I live in Vermont where there are no orchid societies or peeps. Love feeling like I’m tagging along with all you lovely folks. Thank you for inviting us to come along while in our living rooms in the mountains!!❤️🌺
It’s my pleasure to bring these shows into your home. 🤗
What a show those orchids are popping so besutiful..I love the Tshirt the group is in so much fun. Waiting on your haul. Thanks for sharing
Thanks so much 😊We all had a wonderful time. The heat made things a bit unbearable, but we managed. The shirts were amazing. No sweat stains whatsoever. Best shirts ever!
Hi Nelson, Thanks for sharing all the beautiful flowers & video. I was finally able to persuade my husband to take me to the Redland Orchid festival for the first time, what an amazing event! 😁
Im so happy you made it there with the hubby. I’m sure he was a good sport about it. It was so hot out there. I give kudos to the spouses that take their orchid-loving partners to these shows. 👍🏼
Omw, what a paradise ✨️ 😍 💖 so many to choose from. Now I see why it's best to buy cash. Leave the cards at home, cos boy oh boy I would be in soooo much trouble 🎉😂😂good heaven's. Everybody brought their A game🎉🎉. Thank you for sharing ❤😊
So true! Cards get you in trouble. Cash keeps you on a budget. 😎
I love watching these orchid conventions. Where I live (San Francisco), the orchid shows are a lot smaller. Love seeing the variety of orchids at these big shows. Makes me want to attend one of the big orchid shows down in Southern California.
Thank you for your generosity🙏🏼. I’m so happy to be able to go out to these events and bring them to your home. I appreciate you. 🫶🏼
Nelson as always a wonderful video and shopping trip. Icc c saw way too many things I would love to have. Congrats on the orchid named after you. Excited to see your haul. You can tell the heat wiped you all out. Be safe at happy hour! Much love to you and the gang!
Hi Jode! We had wonderful time in the heat. 🥵 This year was so hot. But we found a way to have a great time either way. My named orchid has me over the top. Super excited about that.
It was fun meeting you today, You did an excellent job recording in all that heat. Everything was so awesome at the show. .good video ,
Thank you Sandra. People that are not there will never know the heat challanges. 🥵🥵🥵
We miss you guys ❤they look a lot of fun and Nelson the event are amazing and I now you’re a friend of the organizers is only a recommendation because is a lot a vendors next time and the tents put the same number of the map is most easily for everyone remember is only recommendation 😅and like always great event ❤❤❤
Wow what a festival
💚
You’re superpower is #Talking and #Presenting and #Persuading people to get into the hobby! I now have a grow tent, a humidifier with oscillating fans, LEDs, and a computerized controller that gives me the temperature, humidity, CO2 levels, and I’m filling it up with all types of orchids!!! And it’s all because of you
Thank you for the compliments. Sounds like you have an awesome setup going on for your orchid babies.
Great show! You always have the eye for filming. ❤
Thank you! You have no idea the challenges to film at these massive shows while in 100 degree weather. It’s insane!!!!🥵🥵🥵
I had a hard time myself. Ugh! It was horrible
I was there with my wife and daughter on Friday. We got the early admission and went straight to Krull Smith (as usual for me). It was an amazing experience again, probably the best one yet! I am the primary orchid enthusiast in our family but we all had fun. My daughter saved some money and bought two Phals from SO Orchids. It was her first time (6 years old) and she was excited.
I brought home a bunch of beautiful orchids to add to my collection. Possibly my favorite is the Cattleya tigrina 'Sanbar Giant' I got from Krull Smith. The fragrance is delightful and it is quite big!
I saw Mercedes shopping and noticed a couple of your friends, but missed you somehow. Spotted my family walking by you around 47:50 in the video. I was wearing yellow and my daughter was wearing blue). I'm surprised we didn't notice you; totally would have said hi!
So many amazing orchids and great vendors from all over the world all in one place. It's a high point of the year for sure. We had such a fun time and I'm already excited for next year!
Wow! Sounds like you had a great time. Kudos to your daughter getting her feet wet with her first orchids. 💚
HOORAY!
🎉🎉🎉
Ya notice how everyone is happy around the plants? It's virtually impossible to be sad when one is around orchids, especially this amount with these beautiful blooms.
I agree! Everyone is orchid drunk giddy. 🤗
Great festival thanks for sharing 😍🌱🌱🌱
Thanks for visiting! Wish you would have gone Rosana. By the way the Kingianum I put in your pot is beginning to bloom. It loves it in that pot. 🫶🏼👍🏼💚
@@naturenel this time I couldn’t go !I imagine how beautiful the kingianum will look in the pot you have good taste 😍🌱🌱🌱🌱
Seeing people with their hands and carts full of spectacular orchids convinces me that growing orchids is indeed addictive! What a nice community to belong to. Your special talent, Nelson, is making these wonderful videos for us who can't be at the shows.
You’re very sweet. Thank you for the compliments. I agree! These orchids steal our hearts like no other plants. 💚
Thanks Nelson. Looking forward to seeing your haul ❤
The haul will be coming right up together with a what’s in bloom and the unveiling of my new greenhouse.
Can't wait
Hola Nelson..
Fui el sábado espectacular la feria Orquídeas Preciosas siento que no los vi a ese grupo espectacular e inconfundible!!!

Thanks for joining us! 🎉
Thank you Nelson!!!
You’re welcome!☺️
35:13 I have this one from J&L. It's making a new cane now, but it already has four huge canes.
35:29 I also have the Den Peng Seng in the back with the light green and red blooms.
Nelson's superpower is orchid knowledge. 🤓
💚
Your superpower is being you. Your videos are beyond amazing. Your intro song always gets me in the mood of buying more orchids. I truly appreciate all you do for your viewers as you are an inspiration to us all. Eres una persona que irradia mucha alegria.
Alex you are so kind. Thank you for your beautiful words. 🙏🏼🫶🏼💚
I appreciate your compliments. My viewers feedbacks is what motivates me to keep doing what I do. 🙏🏼
Nice tour
💚
I’m going to Hawaii in November, I’m very excited I might visit an orchid nursery
How exciting!!!! You should try and visit S&W Orchids. Jeremy is an amazing orchid and aroid grower. His nursery is amazing. 🤩
Thank you for showing and sharing this awesome orchid show!!!! Lots of orchids! I’m drooling! 🤤🤭😅😅😅
This show had so much to offer. ☺️
Hi Nelson, 😊💕
Hope you are doing well
Started laughing when I saw my Trini peeps🤣 We always give a loud shout out. Nelson you are well known here among orchid collectors. Curlene and I are in some of the same local orchid networks here in Trinidad. Spent the day catching up on your videos. Enjoyed every one of them. Warmest greetings from TnT 😎🌴☀️💚
This warms my heart. I have amazing memories of my college years hanging out with my Trini friends. I miss them so much. Now through my channel it feels like I’m meeting amazing Trini people all over again. It’s a beautiful thing. 🙏🏼💚🤗
It was great hot but great my friends and I were thinking the same thing to switch Tamiami and Redland. Show pics of your gathering and haul.❤
I agree. They need to do it earlier in the Spring. This was just heat at an unsafe level. It reached 100 degrees at one point. I feel the Motes may consider changing it. Its not safe for Bart Motes parents either to be out there in that heat. The environment is changing so we need to adjust.
Not to be taken for granted,over the years we would have heard of these big american orchid shows. Now with avid youtubers making videos of the daily events and showcasing the vendors and thier orchids in their splendour. Thanks again Nature Nel.
I agree. I remember when the only way to know about an orchid show was the small ad in our local newspaper. Sometimes on a local billboard. But with today’s technology we can bring the shows to your home.
Great video as always so sad we missed each other Sunday. But next time 👍. Also I think I actually have the vanda that got named after you but bought it from plantio in November. Isn’t that a funny I like him even more now 🤗 but now I need to have Roxy make it a green pot so it can keep it green.
That’s awesome! I’m over the moon with my own named orchid. I can’t wait to bloom. Super happy to hear you got one. Now you have to retag it since it’s registered under Nelson’s Amethyst Gem.
°Acting sly when I just learned that five minutes ago.° Your self-effacing humor is entertaining and so endearing.
Lol! I love laughing at myself. I take my channel seriously but I like to call myself out on film.
No wonder when I stop at Motes on Friday, it was almost empty you purchase everything, 😂😂
Not quite. lol!!!!!🤣
Love, love, love the new orchids❤ thanks for sharing. Congrats for the naming of your, Blanca & Laz's orchids. Beautiful.❤
Thank you Annetta! 💚🙏🏼🤗
Super lindo !!!! Que emoción siempre encontrarlos a todos juntos y sus camisetas súper!!! Que equipo!!! Mucha emoción con tus videos!!! Gracias 🙏
Gracias. Las pasamos súper chévere. 😎
🤣 Laz...sham wow!!! Nelson please tell me if we can buy one of those shirts!!! Seriously I will buy one!! They are awesome! I will represent in Washington State! ❤❤❤❤
The shirts were made by Roxy of Orchids_365. You can reach out to her. Several people want the shirts so she may sell some.

@@naturenel Perfect!!! ❤️
It was a great experience going to the show on Friday…. Your sneak peek helped a lot. Thank you Nelson and crew.
Im very happy to hear that. Im gauging the cause and effect of filming the pre shows. I very much appreciate your feedback.
😁👍
💚
Thank you so much Nelson for another wonderful video 🤩
My pleasure!
Hi Nelson,
you guys are really lucky with your selection and prices. Cattleya species come along here once in a blue moon and when they do they are often close to death. Just no comparrison. Night and day so you are so furtunate to have that difference. Your superpower is that you are friendly and truthful. A rare trait in an orchid grower which is why Roxie always says always be nice. I know you will disagree but you just bring the best out of people. I'm the grumpy git that detests orchid growers deceiving other growers how to grow orchids all the time. Not that this is the best comment again, can't help it I guess. I just wish orchid growers wouldn't get lied to all the time. It's the reason so few people grow orchids in my opinion. Like here I'destimate that less than 1% of people grow orchids. It's not that 99% of people do not want to have orchids in their house. It's just that it takes so much patience figuring out what is the truth and what is complete rubbish when it comes to looking after orchids.
I need to go to the next festival and Taken on too! Thankyou for all your videos. I watch all of your Orchid friends too! Nelson I took your advice on one of your videos and now use Cal Mag and Super Thrive along with my MSU fertilizer. Big difference. I have great growth. Thankyou so much ♥️
Hey Tom! I feel the orchid community is getting a better grasp on growing orchids in their environment. I wish there was a good-for-all recipe to growing orchids. Truth of the matter is we live in different geographical locations making orchid care and growing very diverse. I grow mine outdoor because I’m blessed with great weather for orchids. But I still have to learn what best fits my orchids in this environment. I feel little by little we will get a good handle on growing them properly in our own environment weather indoors or outdoors. As much as I know, I still learn something new about orchid care daily. The key is to try new things out to see how they grow in your setting. Adjusting is part of the learning curve. I do feel a great sense of satisfaction when my viewers tell me that I helped them save their orchids and get the to bloom. That’s what it’s all about. 💚
Thanks for taking us along! Friday seemed to be the best day to go. less crowded?
Yes it was! I went Sunday and I just could bare it. I was upset because I wanted to stay longer but I felt nauseous. Even Teresita almost passed out walking to the car.
Maravilloso video Nelson gracias por compartir tanta Belleza
💚
Nelson I want one of the shirts 😮large please 😊
Reach out to Roxy

I will ❤
Another first comment! I really enjoy your orchid videos, the very reason I subscribed and turned on the notifications ever since! 🤍 Thank you for sharing, Nelson!
I love reading this. Warms my heart. Thank you for your awesome support 🙏🏼🤗💚 I love that you have a channel of your own.
@@naturenelWill always be here to support!
and yes, I'm a beginner youtuber but not a begginer at orchid growing 🤗💚 for now I'm mostly just unboxings and repottings, slowly growing my collection hehe. Still a student, about to go back to school soon~ hehe
Hi Nelson, i went to a Orchid show yesterday ( saturday)here in Rome called Ortidea and there were only 5 booths for orchids and i was very sad because they dont have a lot of variaties, not a lot of cattleyas and few dendrobiums, a lot of phalaenopsis summer and normal one, some vandas , lot of miltoniopsis which i never bought because 4 of them left me already. I am very glad that i bought the only one and only Oncidium cherry baby 😢😢😢 bought a dominiana from ecuagenera that had split leaves 😢 and new growth with sun burn and my favorite was my catasetum taiwan black pearl and 5 more. I was very sad because i didnt buy all the things in my list and especially no orchids supplies since im out of them 😢😢😢 i am very jealous that you have all of it in your place. I ask one booth if they have Phal Gigantea but they teases me that they will be having it in other place next week and its 6hrs drive 😢😢😢 IM VERY SAD. Like happy but sad hahaha idk im enjoying watching your vids ALWAYS!❤
So sorry your show didn’t meet up to expectations. It does happen here in Miami as well. Not all shows are international shows. I feel the orchid world is spreading little by little to smaller areas and places where they never had any orchid events. Perhaps making plans to come to one of our International shows is at hand. 🤗
@@naturenel wow i hope one of them is Rome, Italy. Also! I ask the nurseries about fertilizer and they gave me a yes about Urea 😁😁😁 i bought 250grams from them and im trying it to my orchids.
Good stroll with you and your "gang" through the orchid event. So....what did you buy?
I brought back a few beauties. Doing a what’s in bloom soon tied in with the haul. Plus other great surprises.
Thank for this video it is great seeing all of it one quick question for you what is the soil mix for Hoyas.
I use the same medium that’s sold for philodendrons. Airy and light.
Another great video! What is the name of the nursery around 32:00? The one that you said you got your Bulb Phal from. Thank you
That’s Accent Orchids. They’re prices are the best for those big monster orchids. I paid $375 for something worth in the 1K.
@@naturenel Thank you! I replayed and paused the video several times and finally caught a glimpse of the banner in the booth too. I'll give them a call to inquire about the Bulb Phal. I've been on the hunt for one for a while.
You ever notice they flag UA-camrs like you over music in the background, but they let it go on at Trump rallies on UA-cam? Most artists don’t approve him using their music.
