I use little sections of plastic netting. Back when I tried to get into bonsai I got a pack of 30 for about $5, but I think you could also cut up a plastic canvas (about $2). You can find them in the...

Boy, do I hate opuntia microdasys (bunny ear cacti)

I bought one a little over a year ago, falsely believing that they were a fuzzy, non-sharp cactus. As soon as I tried to repot it and dozens of glochids stuck in my hand I learned how wrong I was. I...

I'm just starting to think about repotting my oncidium that finished blooming recently, and running into some questions.

What makes an orchid hybrid "good"?

I had a blast at the CIOS speaker's day today but in conversations with some people I stumbled across a can of worms. Given that orchids are so diverse and wonderful, what makes one hybrid "better"...

Well, I got my first Phal! Just for coming everyone got a free one, and I swapped with someone else because I loved the yellow tint and they preferred mine's purple spots. I like that this one has an...

Bulbophyllum habrotinium

Today was the Central Iowa Orchid Society's Speakers Day, and I meant to only get a phalaenopsis or two. But none were for sale, and instead the two growers had a lot of hybrids and species. I...

I'll see what I can reasonably do, and what some of the local growers at this weekend's show say. I'm afraid I'm not quite that invested in all this, and I wouldn't want to saddle my roommates with...
