Went to the garden show this weekend, to see my long time buddy David Bird. He's a breeder, retailer, etc, etc, and he and his oldest daughter Vashti forget more in a day about orchids than I've known in a lifetime. I went to visit, not to buy. But of course he brought a couple of half priced "deals" for me. He knows what a sucker I am.
I got my first Brass. recently from a beloved friend, Brassavola nodosa. Some of you may remember me splitting it mostly in bark, a start in SH, to see how it would fare. That's a story for another day. So of course he brings me a big ol' Brassavola cordata. I'm putting it into SH after it blooms. So now with two, I'm officially growing Brass. now.
