Hi Islandshari. I loved your orchid pictures. They are soo exotic! I must read my book and check them all out. What does "Brasso" refer too.
Heloo rjuddharrison, obviously another Brug lover! Someone to keep Chrissy happy. Its lovely to see some of the stronger colours, as all I've seen here in Australia are pale in comparrison! I think they're lovely, but am not so smitten with them as Chrissy. There are so many chewy critters here that the leaves are a real let down. I sprinkle Iron chellate pellets down for the slugs and snails and spray the leaves fortnightly with eco oil, but it doesn't seem to have made much difference, and I'm afraid thats about the extent of my pest management schedule! I do love the fragrance of a night though, and have learned to appreciate its beauty, bug bitten and all! I haven't seen the Daturas here either.
Chrissy, do we have Daturas over here?
