"London Orchid Society's annual show... Joe Diciommo... started growing orchids 27 years ago. ... "Tell me one other flower family that has such diversity," says Diciommo. "None. None! A rose looks like a rose looks like a rose. An orchid sometimes doesn't even look like an orchid."
Diciommo recalls visiting a greenhouse in Hawaii and witnessing a fellow enthusiast pay $2,000 for a single plant. ... Wayne Eyles... from Mississauga... retired... "I now have a greenhouse with over 600 orchids in it. And I'm expanding." ... Eyles is eager to tell... there are 45 species of orchid growing naturally on the Bruce Peninsula" URL: http://lfpress.ca/newsstand/CityandRegion/2008/03/15/5012776-sun.html ********************* Regards, VB _______________________________________________ the OrchidGuide Digest (OGD) [email protected] http://orchidguide.com/mailman/listinfo/orchids_orchidguide.com
