Default Closeup of flowers [1/1]



Peloric - now that's a new one on me so I must do some research! (Have
only been growing orchids for a couple of years so still in the
beginner's class).

As for the weather, England has always been notorious for its rain but
that's what makes the country so lush and green. Global warming,
however, means that we are now seeing more and more floods with several
towns on rivers like the Severn being hit increasingly regularly. We
had particularly bad floods in July last year (mid summer!) and
householders who had only just managed to get their properties dried out
and re-fitted found they were under water again earlier this month. The
prediction is for stormier but warmer winters.

Anyway, must get back to finding out whether Peloric is a good thing or
bad...

Yours looks like it's peloric Peter, not sure will leave it to the experts.
Gosh, how much rain do you get a year? I think we are lucky to get 2"!!!

Hmm, makes my Laelia Anceps flower look a bit sad - still, I'll blame
the English weather (it hasn't stopped raining since the end of May last
year!)
