    Paphiopedilum tranlienianum blooming in situ

    We certainly owe you a huge debt of gratitude for all your wonderful in situ pictures! I want to set up a rock wall to plant as Mohan P.has done... anyone have ideas what kind of rock I should try to find in either landscaping companies or in nature in northern California?

    Western Flower Thrip Damage

    Thrips are the only creature I big out the big guns for. Avid. Must be sprayed with protective gear (face mask, rain suit, etc). It's a thripicide. No other kind of pesticide works well. Thrips blow in and congregate inside developing flower buds, out of reach of most pesticides. When you...

    Tospovirus?

    I suggest contacting Agdia to purchase test kits. It costs approximately $5 to test a plant and is well worth it. The company is very personable and you can send them pictures like yours to request the correct kits. They are a wealth of information and give talks to orchid societies as well!

    Welcome to our newest vendor: The Tiny Jungle (aka Chris Mende)!

    Give me money! Right now it's not possible to maintain a website as well as the eBay store. We just don't have the staff to keep up. As soon as we can manage it, we certainly will. Many of our eBay listings are buy-it-now, even though auctions are more numerous. We also entertain offers...

    Welcome to our newest vendor: The Tiny Jungle (aka Chris Mende)!

    Hi, everyone! Your confusion over our identities is understandable! Tony Wells is my roommate and fellow plant geek. Tony has been involved in my greenhouse venture from its beginning but now we have joined forces in our business to the great benefit of both of us!
