>plants. Any of the follwing information will be appreciated:

Try http://www.geocities.com/RainForest/4677/index.html

>-       Ground compound
Use Pure Sphagnum moss peat

>-       Water 
Use soft water (distilled or rainwater), keep them standing in it

>-       Temperature
Keep frost free. A cool to warm greenhouse / room is fine

>-       Light
They like as much as possible!

>-       Nutritional information
Don't give them any fertilizers at all

>-       Ground PH
This should be acid, but if you use moss peat, then it will 
automatically be so.

I hope this helps,
