Default Stop me before I buy more

So where do you keep these on a boat? (Enquiring minds want to know)

Do you worry that any salt spray will wreck the roots?

We bought 11 more miniatures from Andy last weekend at the
OC show. What was once a classic sailboat is now a green
house. Mon. am I noticed a strong sweet perfume
smell and looking around I found it was coming from the
Tuberolabium (Saccolablum) odoratissimum which bloomed
all 30-40 flowers at once. By noon each day the fragrance
is gone but this is really cool. I can see now that
the potted plants will have to go to make room for a
lot more mounted species.
