I'm still trying to catch up. I just downloaded and installed OrchidWiz 11.3 so I am right up to speed on boffin news.

MJ, I'm very impressed by your lovely Den anceps. What a beautiful plant!

Ursula, I love your Chrisanda [Csn.] Memoria Anri Bracker, so I looked it up. It is now called Papilionanda [Pda.] Memoria Anri Bracker (Ple. teres x V. vietnamica). What a great flower!

I pronounced the rain over prematurely yesterday as it began to rain again and it lasted most of the night. We are only up to 58 degrees today for an afternoon high but it is nice and sunny so I managed to get some yard work accomplished. The forecast calls for yet another cold front to come through tonight dropping tomorrow night's low down to freezing. If so, it would be the first freeze we have had in three years. My tropicals will not be amused. I will drag down some blankets from the attic and try to cover the blooming cyms. My company delayed their trip from Indiana due to the ice storms in Kentucky and Tennessee. I'm not sure when they are going to leave.

Jim
