Hi, Ebby. I see why you want to know more about it-- the colors are exceptional. And the texture silky-shiny, which I always love. I checked OrchidWiz and the RHS, couldn't find anything. That's where it usually ends for me. However, my Wiz is not up to this minute. Sometimes breeders don't register something right away. I think there's a fee, and it can add up to big money if you're breeding lots of different things. So they wait, put it off (like we do sometimes with expenses). Below is the RHS url in case it might be helpful to someone. Hope someone else can be more help. Here is a link that might be useful: Orchid registrations

paul: specifically, they mean the "zone box" that you fill in each and every time you "post a follow-up" or "post a thread" - this has nothing to do with your profile info it feeds your user name only & you fill in your zone - most people add add'l info (city, county, region like pineywoods) b/c the zones stretch across the continent - i use d/fw b/c my town is small, but there are four counties' worth of people in my general area ~ freshair

This was discussed over in the organizing forum. Before you figure out where to display them, you first have to figure out if they are meaningful to him or if you are the one who wants to display them. Some kids like trophies and if he does, then by all means figure out a display option. Creating a shelf that runs around the perimeter of the room at the same height as the top of the window can be a tremendous amount of display space w/out compromising the play space in his room. If they aren't meaningful to your child than get rid of them. You can donate them to youth programs to be reused if you can't stomach tossing them. My older child received a participation trophy for every baseball, soccer, football, and lacrosse season. Participation trophies are meaningless to him. We neither keep nor display them. He received a couple of golds for karate tournaments. These he kept because they were earned. Medals received for top finishes in cross country races are kept as are trophies received when his travel lax team wins a tournament. There may come a time when these, too, will hold no meaning for him and then it will be time to purge them.

I don't consider my plants on display while they're inside for winter, they're just trying to survive. This pot (term used loosely, it's a 5-gal bucket with holes added to the bottom) is in my unheated laundry room near a S window. Plants go wherever they can to get near a window, and any (almost) flat surface is fair game, even a chair! Some stay outside permanently in a mini garden. (many more pics here: http://forums2.gardenweb.com/discussions/1485681/mini-garden?n=44 ) Cramming plants together helps squeeze as many as possible as close to windows as possible: Air plant (this one is Tillandsia ionantha) is displayed in the crook of a Dracaena tree. A "mini jungle." Some crammed windows: (Mentha, if you see this, I've clearly and totally been caught being hypocritical. Look at the sticker. You deserve to know it's been there for about 4 yrs. Given myself a time out! LOL!)
