Hehe - it's just not draining well enough, is all, and I need to re-adjust the potting mix this week sometime.
I've only had it for about a week, so it's still recovering from the treatment it was getting at That Big Orange Hardware Store, you know? Everything I get from there kind of putts along for a couple of weeks before it perks up for me. It'll be fine  |

Once you get one orchid then that first "hit" has you hooked and before you know it you'll have more than you have room for and then you'll really have a game on your hands. Welcome aboard

Cyclamen ! tell them love alwayss get reciprocated.
Though we all love orchids, nothing binds us from falling for other devastating plant beauties. Honestly tell me which of you orchidomaniac resist tillandsia, platyceriums, mesembryanthemum,etc etc. As for cyclamen, their mottled leaves are so ornamental, you would'nt care about flowers on them. But when they bloom, the colours can put orchids to shame. Growing theses beauties are as much a challenge as orchids. Try sincerely, you would'nt be cribbing!
