The Hort's Response - My orchid bloomed once and has not bloomed since although the leaves are very healthy and green. I keep it by a window for light and water by placing 4 ice-cubes in the pot once per week. What can I do to get it to bloom? - When are the orchids in bloom in the tropical dome? - Can you tell me how the new Human Sundial on the front entrance of the Domes works? - What is this plant? - I purchased a Tamarix ramosissima (Summer glow) After purchasing from local nursery, I found information saying that it is a noxious weed. Is it safe to plant in Wisconsin? - I recently bought a cactus at the Domes Gift Shop and I am wondering how to care for it? - What is the tallest tree in the Tropical Dome?
