Orchis simia feb 2013
The Monkey Orchid which I received in September with a damaged tip has burst back in to life. I suspected that it would rot away since it was damaged so I treated it really carefully. As with other plants damage to the apical meristem seems to have resulted in several side shoots developing (three in this case). I don't know whether this will be good or bad I suspect that it will not flower this year but I will observe it carefully to see what happens.
