The Garden and Pet Show plus Christmas Bazaar hosted by the Cactus and Succulent Society of the Philippines last November 10 to 20 was a success.  The opening, the various exhibits and the plant competition all went without a hitch.  The various daily lectures were all very well attended.  Many collectors and aficionados graced the 10-day event.  And sales were generally good for our commercial stallholders.
