Looking forwards to the Selby pics, Elaine.
About the Ludisia - years ago I had a really nice large planter going with this plant until one Winter it was just done and kept declining. Came Spring I looked at the planter and thought that plant was a goner, I didn't even see good pieces to restart the plant. I didn't throw it out, because I thought I could use the pot/planter again and it wound up in a corner of the yard, which btw was in FULL SUN several hours a day.
At the end of the Summer, I happened to look at that pot again and rubbed my eyes, what?
There was new and really healthy growth coming up and that with NJ Summer sun. The strong sun probably killed off what ever was ailing that plant. I kept it a few more years before it petered out on me for good.
Regarding the Orchid schlepping business - Orchids keep us fit?
