Hmmm, ground orchids, how are they doing here ? I heard they need good humidity to flourish, what is your experience. :)

Good to see childanthus in bloom. At lahore, i am unable to make it bloom and some other experienced gardeners too. But sometimes the same bulb from different company blooms and other does not. Congrats.
