Dear All,

Aloha.  

I have been to Selby and I can second the motion that their tropical collection is excellent.  It is wonderfully curated and the diversity of the epiphytic species is impressive.  Harry Luther is an amazing bromeliad botanist.  I want to study bromeliads again, just so I have an excuse to ask him a few questions.  I really cannot say enough about Selby to do it justice...one simply has to experience it.

Aloha,

Leland
