Default Ansellia africana rescue project

I picked this one up as a rescue plant that back in November. The previous owner was in the process of tossing it out (leaves were severely damaged by sunlight and being left in the cold for too long, and he stated that the plant was probably going to die from exposure to frost). It's survived the last few months and although I had to cut off approximately eighty percent of its leaves, the pseudobulbs are still intact and don't show signs of disease. Very tough species, so it should be fine once it initiates one or more new growths this spring.
