Here's a picture of it by the way:

Bitte bitte lauf lauf!!! I love that movie (Lola Rennt/Run Lola Run for those who have no idea what we're talking about). The quote translates approximately to "uncountable questions, that people are trying to answer. But in the end, it's all the same questions, and the same answers. The...

Yay! It arrived. Nice and huge and healthy, hopefully it will bloom at the next season. 2 big growths. It's in coarse bark mix for now, I'm contemplating s/h, cuz I like it for my other plants. For my other plants, I use MSU @ 125 ppm N, would this work for my new baby?

I disagree. That garden is completely beyond help. You should give it away immediately. I will be more than willing to assist in the "disposal" of all your substandard plants. :rollhappy: :D :rollhappy: Actually, I think it looks great! I wish I had a space like that.

Paph. lowii x Paph. lowii 'Princehouse' AM/AOS is on its way... any advice for culture would be greatly appreciated. I've never done this slipper thing before.

My fuschia is growing just fine...low/medium light, water every other day, relatively cool. Of course, it drops old leaves/blooms all over the bedroom, but that's nothing a little dustbusting can't solve.

go to a drug store and buy some Os-Cal. It's made from oyster shells. no script needed!

heh. boy named sue. heh.

yes. it has a light fragrance that reminds me a little of cotton candy.

Tadd and Heather were the sort-of winners. I ended up getting a Vandofinetia Blaupunkt, which nobody suggested, but I liked it more than any of the suggestions. Since they suggested one of the parents of the hybrid, and their suggestions were what got me thinking of the blaupunkt, they still...

yeah...that's the second vote for neofinetia falcata. interesting.

just wanted to let people know that I have a little contest running on www.orchidboard.com and by the way, I don't have any paphs/phrags (and not a single person suggested one). here's the link: click here have fun!

Both Oakhill and Orchids by Hauserman have high quality plants including various oncidium intergenerics. I've bought in person from both of them, but I've never had anything shipped so I can't speak to how well things travel.

I have a question regarding the posts above: If fertilizer cannot be absorbed through the velamen, then how does the plant absorb nutrients at all? To me it would seem that the roots must be permeable to ions or else they would never be able to absorb anything but water from thier...

the word us doctor-types use is "pendulous," but the context we use it in is entirely different...sagging breasts. :wink:

sounds like you need a bigger hammer. or a hacksaw or some metal snips or something. you can do it, home depot can help. or something like that.
