Bob have you considered growing the plants in baskets with a rock medium? I grow in a g/h and will not water anything more than once a day either. Here is the only picture I have that almost shows you how I grow the vanda family. Asco. miniatum The original plant was in a 4" vanda basket, roots dangling long and proud but I couldn't get it to bloom. I soaked the roots and placed the entire thing in an 8" basket. It is doing great as is my only big Vanda, tricolor. When the roots escape, I eventually guide them back into the basket. Brooke

I have lots of spanish moss if you are interested. I am interested in your Chapparal Sage and Barrel catus seeds.

If anyone has information on how to grow it or even keep it fresh looking in a dry climate, please let me know. I have ordered a bunch in March (have it now) but I will use it as party decor in Sept.. I'm trying to keep it alive or at least somewhat fresh. I live in Sacramento Ca. Thanks

WOW, California's not joking when it comes to plant polices! So far Ive never bought anything off the internet that has come infested with bugs, and thats the main reason why I dont buy plants from other countries (by the time a plant passes through customs maybe 3 weeks later, it will be half dead, if it passes customs at all). When I get my spanish moss later this week, Ill update you on its condition! Wish me luck :)
