Really? Easier to see in sphagnum? I wouldn't think so, but hey. What do

Kathy,
I suspect it's the light color and relative ease of removal that makes critter observation "easier"... Personally, I don't like the idea - too risky. Granted, the Taiwanese orchid nurseries are kept meticulously clean, but neither they nor the shipping containers are hermetically sealed, so the risk is still there. -- Ray Barkalow - First Rays Orchids - www.firstrays.com Plants, Supplies, Books, Artwork, and Lots of Free Info! ..
