Richard,
Oh come on surely you can do better than that! It's an orchid group, you
could for example test by writing:
"Orchids rule!" or "Buy more orchids!" or "Would an orchid by any other name
be still as alluring?"

In my quest for diversity, I plan on growing several orchids on a log
and
thought I'd ask the Group's advice. I'm looking to have several smaller
orchids, the log will be laying down so they won't need to be tied (like
mounted orchids). I'll probably put some Spanish moss around and under
the
log for effect, but orchid moss, some charcoal and coconut chips under
and
over the roots.

So far I plan on using Masdevallia Celtic Frost (Angel Frost X
glandulosa)
(pink, orange and fragrant) or it may be the Masdevallia June Winn
(Redwing X decumana)( red) as one plant. I mounted one on cork (thanks,
Ray) and mixed them up so I'm not sure which is left and they are
babies.
I also hope to replace a
Trisetella cordeliae (red with yellow) which died (another tiny one), so
I'm going for a red growing out of green and brown effect. Any
suggestions?

I have 3 mounted (two Phals and one of the Masdevallia) one caged Phal
and lots of potted orchids of various sorts. I can't go too crazy with
size, as it all has to fit in my orchiderium when the cold weather comes
to CT.
