hi all, years ago i was a much bigger orchid grower than nowadays. a south african grower and nursery owner, karsten woodrick, came to speak at an event and sell plants and i bought a nice Satyirum species native to south africa. either it was not identified or described or i've forgotten the species name but it grew nicely. unfort. before it got to bloom, a devil squirrel climbed into my apt. from the window and ate the plant! of course i've never been able to replace it and i still don't know what the flowers would have looked like. i've always been interested in terrestrial orchids (although i'm not totally clear they are "bulbs) as they would make great companions to gesneriads, begonias and ferns that i grow indoors, and they usually have beautiful foliage. i've tried several rainforest genera including Macodes, Anoectochilus, Nephelaphyllum, Tainia, Malaxis, Sarcoila, etc. but they are not easy to grow. currently my only one is Pelexia laxa, from colombia, besides Ludisia discolor, which everyone seems to grow... tsuh yang __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
