snips ...

Well, this is really hard to admit.... I got up at 5 am to check if my
orchid was ok,[?]
anyway I had it over the fireplace and I had watered it, [once a week it
says], but it looked as though it was too warm, petals curling a teeny weeny
bit,
so I moved it , the room is north facing,and I have a christmas cactus and
money plants in there , which I generally water just before they wilt away ,
so I will keep an eye on it,
I feel silly , but it is so exquisite,
a complete joy to see something so beautiful
thankyou for the advice, [much needed/heeded]

Have a look at McBeans website http://www.mcbeansorchids.co.uk/. They
are probably the leading orchid producer in the UK. We used to live a
few miles away and visited regularly, just to look at the orchids. They
are extremely knowlegable and very helpful. They'll even repot orchids
for you at a nominal charge.

If you're near enough (they're in E. Sussex, just north of Lewes) or are
ever in the area, definitely visit.

I try sending them an e-mail.
