I have this problem (drying too quickly) with my orchids in bark if I don't let the bark soak after it's dried out....See MoreWhat’s up with my Lions Head JM??

I made ice in trays in two refrigerators (kitchen, garage) for many years. And finally had my plumber run a line to the ice maker in my last refrigerator a few years ago. Yes, I know, but old habits die hard ;0)...See Morewhat’s up with my foliage on Above and Beyond?
