visit to members greenhouse
Sunday I am going to a member of our local society's greenhouse. Hoping to buy some plants, after weeks of changing of minds I think I came to a conclusion. First I wanted to go with Paphs then just go and see wat i want. But now I think I am going to take,
Rossioglossum splendens NFS
Pescatoria lehmannii BS
Psychopsis Mariposa BS
Brassavola cucullata, Blooming 
So what do think? Good choice?
Also any culture information welcome  |

Psychopsis will make you so happy We have the papilio, and she's such a happy bloomer. Except for now, she's taking some time off, I guess because of the weather, but I don't mind |

I'm sorry about your papilio! Ours also had this black rot thing going on one of her leaves, so maybe that's also why she's postponing more blooms I cut the leaf off, moved her to a shadier spot, hopefully will recover well. |

I've only talked to him through email so far and haven't bought anything, yet But I have a suspicion I'll be a frequent visitor, as we're moving to Pretoria East next year  |
