Alice, as to where to put your Physical Grafitti, if you've got a tree anywhere in the yard with a fairly thin canopy, it will climb up there and be really happy. They actually like bright shade to part sun. Mine is shaded in the middle of the day by an oak tree. I see them all over the place down here, on big low branches of the live oaks. Next time you come, you'll have to check out the one in the Selby Gardens parking lot. It's enormous! My favorite orchid orphanage had one that had climbed at least 25ft. up a pine tree, too. Anything with rough bark.

I've got the Turnera Ulmifolia in the white with black centers and I've never been able to collect any seeds, although it does seed itself so I know it has some . . . Anybody got a trick? Paper bags? Envelopes?
