And yeah, I know of Andy's orchids. He's in the same county as me. I'm planning a trip up to see him to get bulbo treschii (not for outside, but still an odd, pretty plant! and good for epiphytic growth in my Sulawesi biotope aquarium). And to just chat him up in general.

Keep the orchids out of reach of the turtles... I have a friend who has a pond with a little stream and turtles... he had a lovely Phrag. besseae, a great habitat because they like running water... that got eaten, was just a little too close. Heartbreaking...
