Charm, I rescued this at our Orchid Society times ago, in a very poor situation, completely infested with fungal diseases. It took me more than three years to get it rid of the diseases and get it back to the healthier condition you see in this photo.

Based on this and your other recent posts, I'd say you don't just have a "GREEN thumb," you have an ORCHID thumb!! Wow!

I like that one a lot! I have a question, Mauro, and I hope it isn't too personal. Is there anything you CAN'T grow?
