    I need specific advice on Catt. walkeriana 'Pendentive'

    I have the above ordered from SVO and I plan to mount it on cork bark. Should I mount "naked" or use something like coco fiber and just spray it lightly once or twice a week. I know the general growing conditions and my gh is very humid 80%-90% most of the time. I killed a walker a long time...

    Phrag.Asuko Fischer 'Waunakee' x Waunakee Sunset 'Cherry' name is.....

    Has this Phrag. earned a single name? I'm really tired of trying to write the whole cross on every tag. One tag I don't mind, but two or three tags over the years is causing hand cramps.

    Tiny white mushroom-like...

    whatever growing in and out of some of my Phrag. pots. I assume a fungus. The tiny things don't seem to be doing damage. Perhaps a repotting is the thing to do? I'm planning on lots of repotting in early spring or should I do it as soon as it cools off a bit?

    slugs in my greenhouse

    Anybody got a remedy for slugs that can be used on a wet concrete floor? I can't find where on earth the slugs are getting in, but I found a huge one on one of my Phrag. pots. I had a panic attack and had to pull the slimy thing off by hand.

    Wanted looking for walkeriana vendors

    suggestions on where to buy this little beauty. Color is secondary. Health and larger size, 6" pot is most important. I'd like to grow one or two mounted on cork. Got ideas?

    I HATE this hot weather...

    Anybody else with a greenhouse fighting to keep temps. down? My temp. reached over 80F today with wet wall, fans everywhere and three humidifiers going full blast...also a running fountain and hosing down floor. I'm thinking through-the-wall air conditioner possibly. Feed back anyone?

    Phrag. La Vingtaine ( MD Clemens 'Sandy Gem' x kovachii 'Terminator')

    Anyone have this particular plant? I bought two divisions and they're growing well , but no bloom so far. Perhaps my culture is at fault. Any suggestions will be appreciated.

    Hey Duck Slipper!!!!!

    I just found my Caudatum is in low bud! Wonder of wonders. I didn't think the &^%^$ thing would ever bloom. So glad you mentioned that your plant is in bud or I'd never have seen mine. Thank you, Sir.
