Plant of the Month

January 2012 - The plant of the month, or rather basket of the month, went to Sherry and Peter Decyk for the beautiful arrangement of dendrobiums with a bit of aerangis and paphinia “on the side”. The Latouria Dendrobiums that they showed to us this time are a very rewarding group of dendrobiums that do not require a shock to start blooming and that stay in bloom for months. Sherry and Peter grow their dendrobiums in a bark-based medium, hanging in their greenhouse, so they get plenty of light and can dry somewhat between watering. Congratulations, Sherry and Peter! Sorry about the lack of a picture but it turned out that Peter Poot's camera was on the fritz
