Epiphytic ‘Dancing Lady’ Orchid. Gold Dust Croton.
Growing on our Michelia stump |
ADDED, 1 May 2020: A note on the
Michelia stump. We planted it in 2002 as a youngster when we bought the house and planted the garden. It was barely three feet tall and we were told it would be a useful addition to our hedge. Instead it grew to 40 or 50 feet. It got knocked nearly down by typhoon
Mangkhut in 2018. We had to bring in tree surgeons.
Usually if we cut a tree to a stump it regrows. Not the Michelia. No worries. It’s a home for happy epiphytes.
