Yes, I found them, but it was a challenge! I spotted the large one right away, but the little one evaded me for quite some time. But then it always took me forever to find Waldo -!
And I totally agree - they are just too cool! Plus, you have a really nice moss coverage - they are probably in pseudoscorpian heaven!

I have a light on the greenhouse as it sits below the window about 9 inches. I have a tiny fan and the top of the greenhouse is usually open. Humidity stays around 70 to 80%.

Whatever the reason, I'm happy with the blooms.

:-) yep, I grow it outside year round, so it gets cold winter snaps and now hot weather and high humidity, I would say bright shade, will see if it will bloom this year :-)

Really lovely blooms!
