I thought that I would also let you know that these same products were being
sold in a nursery chain (Knapp's Plantland) in western Canada a couple of
years ago. I don't recall who was manufacturing them but they did seem to
be doing their marketing. They were competing against similar packages of
Cp put out by Gubler Orchids.

I agree about the comments that many larger commercial nurseries do not know
how to keep their CP displays alive... and wet. I had personally informed
the staff at the above chain several times that they should water their CP
soon because they were dying. What a waste when 50 Darlingtonia died over a
few weeks. I'm glad that there are some exceptions to this example out there.

Randy.
