This is where my damaged or sick plants go. It's the only place my D. glabripes seems to stay alive but I need to figure out a taller, more permanent home for them. VFTs with damaged roots do well here along with a volunteer pine seedling. I keep it at 95%+ humidity so it may not work for everything.

That's one of the coolest things I've ever seen. I have a similar area, but green sphagnum. The green on purple contrast is amazing! If you want to sell or trade a small pinch of that sphagnum, please let me know.

I'll try to start propagating some. I just put another species of red under LEDs. I'm curious what the color will do.
