Mark, I have read that there are many kinds of bulbs,pseudobulbs, corms, rhizomes, etc that South Africa has that are not usually seen in the Northern Hemisphere. Do you have a website that we give information on these?

Well, you know me - the first place a flower usually goes is on the end of my nose *G*
