Awanda, lovely blooms! Montana is really nice with those yellow flowers. I have never heard of that one. Pink Silver is really pretty. I have one of those and can't wait to get a bloom!

Mark: I am so glad to see that photo of H. serpens! Wow, nice plant and a very pretty flower. I received serpens in a trade a couple of months ago and was told it would do well in a terrarium so I stuck it in my 10 gal terrarium. It seems to love it in there but I'm wondering if it would be better potted up? And, you say it likes cool conditions? I wonder if I should remove it from the terrarium and pot it up. I will definitely keep it in the air conditioned house if it prefers cool.
