    I know the answer to that one.

    YES it is.

    But we have a nice flowering on the Dendrobium delicatum (the back) right now.

    hmmmmmmm, I have a hard enough time figuring out the international date line, how is it that its May in Sweden? :poke: :evil:

    j/k :cool:

    Thats a pretty big sized greenhouse you have there.

    Its unseasonably warm in San Diego (around 30C today) - just to make you jealous.

    AceetobeOh I don't want to hear about having it warm. Sweden is cold now a days. Not minus, but almost. The darkness is the worst thing.

    Forrest yes, it's the Baltic sea.

    I lived in Holland for 5 years, and my mother in law is from Ljungby, so I know all about the darkness.

    How far North are you?
