Sorry, then awfully close in Rifstangi. What's the latitude on that, Sigvaldi?
66.32°N 016.10°W which puts it a couple of kilometres south of the Arctic circle.

I beg to differ, I have seen wild orchids blooming above the Arctic Circle
in Iceland.
Iceland is below the Arctic circle.

om:
Has anyone any hints on growing orchids from scratch. I have one
bulb( I'm not even sure if that is what they are called) which has aa
shoot about seven inches long, how long before it will flower? I have
some others waiting to be planted. Can they be outside in pots? I
have been told it will be alright provided the temperature is above 5
degrees. Did anyone go to the 10th orchid festival at Kew Gardens -
amazing!
Are you sure it is an orchid? No orchid I'm aware of will stand freezing
temperatures. Is there a tag or some kind of indentification for this
"bulb"?
