I'm thinking of creating another Weed Orchid

[Stray59]

Fascinating post! Living in the Midwest, it blows my mind that you can broadcast orchids seeds in your own yard and have them survive - I am green with envy! Really, pea-green, perhaps chartreuse even....LOL. How cool. Of course I knew they did this in the wild, and you live in their natural environs, but I hadn't thought you could naturalize them is such a manner.
Which brings me to my question. I know about the symbiotic need for the fungus to supply the nutrients to the seeds for success. Could you take a live root from a mature plant and pulverize it, smearing the resultant gunk on a tree - wouldn't you be "seeding" that area with the needed fungus starter? Or would the rotting material of the root set up a harmful fungus/bacteria?
Just a thought......
