Dont forget to water the plant though! Keeping water off the flowers is a great idea, but keeping those flowers going will probably make your plant thirsty. |

Okay everyone, cross your fingers, I'm goin' to Orlando for judging. I just finished grooming it and gettin' it pretty. My best friend and I are leaving in the morning, so we can make it to the Botanical Gardens beforehand. I have to be there by 1:00pm, but I'll probably get there a little early....cuz I've never done this before. So cross your fingers....I'll let you know how it turns out!  |

 Oh well, no awards this year. It was mostly Paphs that were there, and one really nice Bulbo. got awarded....but they didn't really seem too impressed with mine. They didn't even really spend much time on it, or take any measurements or anything. One of the judges got most of the awards. Oh well, better luck next year! |
