Caught not paying attention
Epidendrum Magnoliae. It was salvaged from some trees in Brooksville that the power company was taking down around power lines. I saw a bunch of logs on the side of the road and snatched this little one off about a year ago. It says thank you.

Nice and great job saving it from the chipper. If yours are blooming now, I am going hiking next Saturday and I will keep my eye's open. Thanks for sharing

What a nightmare. Your home is destroyed, and you have no ability to move away. Sure death indeed. Congrats Charles on the nice save.
