    I think I may need to pollinate her too. Perhaps Chris can stop by to do it? :rolleyes:

    Oh - I found another picture of my wife's namesake croton. This orchid is Pam's favorite. She loves both the orange coloration and fragrance of the flowers. Another bonus is that this orchid blooms 4-6 times a year! :cool:

    Ron, That is one great looking plant! Is it large enough for a air layer? I would get another plant started if it was mine, before I planted it in the ground. If you plant it in the ground.......please don't plant her under a Royal Palm. :eek::eek:

    If I recall the first time you sold this plant it bid out at over $100 dollars put my name on one. You might consider tissue culture, that way this beauty could be in every garden
