Thanks, littlefrog! That was a quick reply. :-)

Both of my Masdevallias are hybrids: Aquarius and Mary Staal.

I had a beautiful orange with purple hairs that was just stunning. Then we got sent to India for 2 years, so I gave to a teammate to look after and he killed it. So, I'm starting again...

So, these four will go into the set up. The Brassias the Encyclia will stay separate.

I tried to be careful to choose ones which best suited my climate (I'm in the UK) - and both Mas. have re-flowered nicely just sitting on my kitchen windowsill. I want to move them into a terrarium because I know they could do with higher humidity. They sometimes get too dry which causes new leaves to fold and crinkle... Hopefully being in the terrarium will fix that.

Many thanks again! I'm going off to look at all the wonderful pictures of the setups you guys have here!

Cheers,
Shakkai
