Very nice, Peter, for I suspect (or maybe I'm wrong?) there may not be hundreds of pictures in the thread this month

Tnx Tony - Alan gave me that when I was really just starting out and working out what I was really interested in plants-wise. Sad to say Disocactus and the general leafy epiphytic types didnt make the cut with me!
