    Aircone pots

    Rands Air were once state-of-the-art orchid pots, around 25 years ago, and they are still damn fine pots. But many newer designed pots, incorporating air cones and side slits and heavy drainage, have saturated the market, making the Rands pots not as unique and hard to find nowadays. But I still...

    Wanted Wanted Phrags.

    I’ve been trying to order some phrags from Woodstream for months after initial contact with Bill and getting updated lists (from which to order). Now—radio silence for some time. Contacting them has been, for me, a waste of time and an orchid chasing folley at best…

    Cattleya Violacea Var. Semi Alba

    Ahhh, perfect. Just recently got a small C.violacea, and my low night temps are 58F-62F averaging 60.8F, which some say is a little low for violacea; I guess we shall see…? As a plus, days can get up to 90F… I think violacea is just a stunning bi-foliate!
