Best place to germinate seeds is in the pot of the parent plant Funnily enough I treated Mrs G to one this week - I think it was a Phalenopsis have to check - and that had absolutly no instructions with it - guarranteed another sale I guess when the 1st one is killed off by unsuspecting folks.

The leading experts on orchids in this country are a school in Somerset I think it is. The micropropagate them and are actually re-introducing into the wild.
