    Cymbidium Jin Feng Jin

    From when it was blooming! It had the nicest fragrance, too!

    Paph Lady Isabelle

    My Lady Isabelle is in bloom! 😍 First blooms ever! Now, if only my Roth would bloom simultaneously! Does the yellow stem mean this one is a female with spores…?

    Wanted Paph. Winston Churchill

    Hi! I found someone who has one. We agreed I would hold off on purchasing to see how my orchids fare over a cold, dry Midwest winter. My current collection is actually doing amazingly well so far! I have new growth on my catasetums and on several paphs and on my 3 phrags!

    Crown on Spike on Phal

    Thank you for the info. I’ve apparently always heard the word “keiki” used incorrectly to mean a spike. Now I understand the difference. Appreciate the replies,

    Crown on Spike on Phal

    Hi all - hoping to pick the collective brains and expertise here. I have this phalaenopsis that I got from my local nursery. It isn’t a special species that I am aware of…when the blooms faded I left the spike because it had several nodes that appeared healthy and likely to re-spike. Sure...

    Interesting Soak Water Measurements

    Hey! I thought I’d kick this out to the “tribe” for opinions and input. I was doing my usual watering today and checked soak water with my BlueLab pH/Conductivity combo meter. For what it is, I’d call that a high quality meter! My unfiltered, untreated tap water measures alkaline and relatively...

    A possibly interesting idea, what do you all think?

    I know this is an older thread…can I become your friend and get a gift plant?? :D This is a wonderful set up. I would love to graduate to this level!

    Phrag. Patti McHale x. Naukana Kealoha

    I’m sure this isn’t an award worthy bloom. But it’s pretty to me and makes me smile! Hopefully it does the same for folks here :) Forgive the white flecks on the leaves and bloom. It’s a treatment cocktail I use for pests and bacterial and fungus.

    Mealybug treatments that can be applied directly to roots

    Just chiming in with another nod for Orthene. I just knocked a mealybug infestation out and several of my paphs were in bloom. No negative effect on the plant or bloom or bud. On the worst plants, I followed up with this on the top of the medium (image below). 1/2 tsp sprinkled around was...

    My paphs need help!!!

    Curious if there was a resolution or improvement with the cinnamon/alcohol treatment?

    Hydnophytum formicarum

    This arrived sans ants! 🤣 I was half tempted to return it. Mislabeled plant! (Kidding…)

    Hydnophytum formicarum

    Not sure if non-orchids are allowed! I saw someone posted a pretty wandering Jew on here. So, maybe I’ll be forgiven if this isn’t allowed. But, I do absolutely love my ant plant! It was a bonus from an order from Orchid Web! Hydnophytum formicarum. It was very hard to NOT buy their recently...

    Wanted Paph. Winston Churchill

    I know it’s a long shot! I want to find a Paph Winston Churchill! I know OrchidWeb/Orchids Limited will have a bulldog type cross in the spring. I was hoping to find a true W. C. I have a rescue doggo that I named Winston Churchill and thought it would be fun to have a paph of the same name...
