A tale of success---ultimately.
We tried Phrags first in 2002 After years of growing orchids which have a wet to, some degree, dry cycle; it took me a while to wrap my mind around an orchid that actually wants to have "wet feet" all the time. (Something about old dogs and new tricks comes to mind.) Finally, last fall, I set it in a saucer of water and voila. This is less about kudos (three plus years to get it right --Duh) and more about passing along information that might save someone else some time and aggravation. It grows side by side with Catts, that bloom well, and gets the same conditions and feeding regimen. With the exception that, in between , it gets plain watered, daily.
