    Default A New Contest!

    Okay boys and girls...

    Halloween is coming, but not soon enough, so we need a contest to hold us over until we can go begging strangers for candy.

    The prize is an orchid: a division of Mediocalcar decoratum, also known as the candycorn orchid. Seasonal! It's a mini, native to New Guinea, that enjoys cool moist conditions, and its flowers are long lasting. I also think its foliage is attractive. Perfect for our vivarium fanatics! Note - this is not my photo.

    Recently, our dear Tim-O was bemoaning he didn't have a cool nickname on the forum. I think he was jealous of Doc Spock. So the contest is to see who can come up with the best nickname and matching avatar for Tim! Feel free to ask Tim any questions you need to, as the nickname should be appropriate. Tim will decide the winner! Anyone can play, but obviously I can only ship the plant within the U.S. So foreign entries will be playing for prestige and bragging rights.

    Come on, let's dress up Timmy for Halloween!
