Very Nice Christoph!!!! I like Phaius/ Calanthes..

They are cool!!

your best bet would be to dig some compost from under some trees. I know you live in the concrete jungle!!! If you can get to a good wooded area in central park, or someones yard. You would have a better chance to get the micro-organisms that you need as they grow in most compost.
