>I will post photos on my web site after our orchid show (AOS trustees
>meeting) next week. I hope you do and show us one with the name Arias on it, if you can,
please.
......................................................................................................................................... >Peter, I know you are friends with Manrique, the other person who was >allowed to collect 5 plants of PK by INRENA. Thank you for giving me an opportunity to talk
about a wonderful man. Alfredo is not only my friend,
but a friend to all who have ever met
him. He is well educated, has traveled the world for many
years as a young man. He is a religious person, he
is the most honest man I know.
Yet he manages to survive in a system hard to
navigate.

>Do I detect some jealousy over the fact that Peruanino was successful
with their flasks first?
Thank you for your concern Jerry.
I have seen the flask you purchased from
Manolo, and have no reason to be jealous!!!!
That Manuel Arias
Silva was first in germinating Pk, is not an established fact;
That Manuel Arias Silva germinated them
at all, is not an established fact
!
That Manuel Arias Silva was the first one
awarded a Pk flask export permit by INRENA, is true.
That Alfredo will have his Pk flask export
permit soon, is true.
That I will have Pk flasks within a very
short time, is true. I am happy Jerry, believe me!!

>I have not heard your talk about Phragmipedium kovachii but I would be
interested
>in hearing it. Perhaps you can let me know your speaking schedule? It will be my pleasure to speak to orchid societies
in your area Jerry. Please contact me off list.
