Plant ID?
Hey, all! I'm vacationing in Charleston, SC, and on a stroll down the
battery, it was trash day, and this plant was discarded with the trash of one of those gorgeous houses on Rainbow Row. I don't know if it's a tropical, perennial, or house plant. Anyone have any idea? http://forums2.gardenweb.com/forums/...533930148.jpeg Donna |

It looks to me like an orchid that has finished flowering.

Many tropical orchids have rather succulent leaves, especially the epiphytic
ones.. "Travis" wrote in message news:rTUye.4476$3Y3.1686@trnddc09... Donna deMedicis wrote: Andrew Ostrander wrote: It looks to me like an orchid that has finished flowering.
