yes, there are many plants and animals in the world that experience the same fate. But I'm not really worried about Wollemia because it is now successful in culture worldwide. The stable genetics of this species prevent evolutionary further development.

Jens, I think climate change is not a suitable play ground for psychologists, at least not yet. First Greta et al. should create even more hysteria in humans.

So Mike is right when he writes that there has never been a fire in this valley

Yes I see it in the same way.

A good job by the firefighters, my gratulation

I am on the scientific side of course. I am not religious, You know.

Yes, the only problem still is that not everyone is of the same opinion.

I'm not sure if everyone here is a good person, but I can assure you, Stone and Berthold are. Of course people get hot headed by a fire like the actual Australian disaster.

That was very clear for me and You have my full agreement

I think many Danes are not very familiar with bush fires the size of Denmark. The same could apply to the residents of Luxembourg or Andorra.

Tom, I don`t think that the symbiont has been identified.

I tried a lot of seedlings and adult plants too.They need the original mycorrhiza substrate from North Vietnam or connecting China. Otherwise they rot quickly. Or You can grow them sterile in containers.

I don't know, but was there a wrong forest management in the potential fire areas in the last decade, so that the today fires have to much food? That was a common failing in Mediterranean and Californian regions. But administration learned.

Be careful please. In Central Europe, orchids mostly follow the humans made cultural landscape, because most of them hate deep and dark woods. That means no men no orchids. Some people say no orchids no men, but that is wrong. But you can say the same about orchids as about poodles, a life...

Mankind doesn't need as many species of orchids to survive. But I love as many species as possible.

I would like to post much more about that subject but I don't know what :) I will only hope that the valley in the Blue Mountains with Wollemia nobilis, my favorite conifer, will not be destroyed by the fire.

No, under good conditions the inflorescence has more flowers. But I am a humble person and only presented the smaller inflorescence.

Yes, we know that from the fire storms in Hamburg and Dresden.

Thanks, Jens, I will try my best but it is not really easy sometime

I wish a nice Christmas, to my friends and my enemies. Berthold
