[QUOTE="Tony C, post: 244707, member: 4573"] Flasking and tissue culture have been an idea I've tossed around for a while but just haven't had a chance to try. I would really like to experiment with Sarracenia TC, the process is still in its infancy and there are only a handful of clones in culture. Depends on the orchid, jewel types like Ludisia and Macodes are the most suitable for terrariums and many of the smaller Pleurothallids and Bulbophyllum group are also good candidates. Larger orchids like the common Phalaenopsis and Oncidium alliance intergenerics are generally too big, if the plant itself doesn't out grow the terrarium its inflorescence certainly will. Many are also prone to fungal and bacterial infection if kept in a location with poor airflow and high humidity. [/QUOTE]
