Rain........................we have been lonely on DG.............everyone seems to be gone........so glad you posted that beauty..............

I went to the local nursery today to get some 4" hoyas for a beginner (like me)..............and she tried to tell me that the Vandas wouldn't grow here because it is too hot...........it is not stopping me one bit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I just wash 'em down everyday........sometimes two times a day.................

I am a bit worried about this orchid thing............ seeing yours and others is causing some unrest here on the homefront (LOL)

Don't ever worry about the streps...........i am in love with them........have so many wedges growing now................and intend to keep adding to the collection............just because these are going out doesn't mean there won't be plenty more..............

Look what is blooming again behind this leaf...........Midas.........i never give away any strep that someone has either given me a leaf from or the mother plant..........

I am not ever shipping streps this big though............have been trimming leaves all day........to make the pots more compact.............let me go measure one leaf and tell you it has to come off before mailing........makes the postage too high for the buyer..........going next time to send them out when they are smaller............

I am on pins and needles waiting for the Austin and kerrville shows.....................one would think I was never going to get my hands on another strep..................will start propagating the ones I find with fury when i get home with them..................
