Last night I showed my 8 year old grandson your post and explained about the ghost orchid. We can teach them young to enjoy natures beauty.

Never say Never Marilyn. If you can find a way down here at this time of year, we'll find a way to show you some.

Hey Joe, haven't heard from you lately, I was there a couple days ago and the only area's with water is real low area's but for the most part it's still dry.

Hi Mike !
I saw in youtube your wonderful video of the Ghost Orchids.
Can you record in the next time a short Video of the Flower of Vanilla phaeantha.
Only if there do not mind !
I would be very happy to see the Flower of Vanilla phaeantha in "3d".
I collect all pictures of this species,
but i dont saw it in a video.

Allthebest

Scratch..if you're up really early tomorrow morning we can shoot up there for while if you want.

Dave yeah, its been a while, thanks for the report I was in there about 3 weeks ago last. I wouldnt mind a little wetness, its when its up to my chest that I get a little creeped out sometimes. Maybe Ive watched to many horror movies huh?
Take care.
