Don't kill it, Kathy. Too good for that! Nice effort - deserves a
cultural certificate!

I think this one is actually Masd. floribunda var. tuerckheimii. I got
it from Rod Venger lo those many years ago (95?? 96??) and it probably
qualifies as my oldest orchid. Watch. Now I'll kill it. Flowers seem
to be amongst and below the foliage rather than above it. I'm not sure
if thats a reflection of my inadequacies as a grower or the plant's
nature.

Speaking of my inadequacies, where's danny been? I miss his pictures
(so very much better than mine.) I know Eric Hunt has been busy at work
etc. and I keep up with him via his flikr site.
