    Some orchids can be hardy...looks like you will be enjoying flowers again soon. That must be a welcome sight after the mess of a flood.

    Vangie glad to hear your safe, where exactly in Pampanga are you from? I've heard that there are still some areas that are still flooded.

    Vangie, I wish you were closer. I'd send you home with some new plants.

    Vangie, the flood was terrible, but now your orchids are on the mend. I hope everyone and everything are also better. Good growing! I am so glad to know your orchids are marching on in spite of this setback.

    Cheers,

    We share the same heartache Vangie. I am also from Pampanga and our area was flooded. The water reached about 10 feet and guess what? My Vandas and Dends drowned.. and only few survived.. :'( Sadly, I have to start again from scratch. :'(

    So sorry, Trevor. How devastating.
