Hello everyone! I'm really excited to join and hopefully learn more about growing orchids! I still consider myself a novice, but have been growing orchids for about 5 years now. I have about 20, and would probably have a lot more if I had more room.
I currently only have 3 slippers;
1. Phrag Inca Treasure (Kovachii 'Goliath' x longifolium)
2. Phrag Jason Fischer (besseae 'Rick Hunter' x M.D. Clements 'Red Wing')
3. Paph Supersak 'Eureka' AM/AOS x Rasin Pie 'Hsinging' x Sib.
I actually have 4 little plants of the Paph Supersak, as the parent plant grew 3 baby plants about 1 yr ago.
Which leads me to my first question: The parent plant of Paph Supersak has hardly any roots, and hasn't since I rescued it from my mom. I currently have it planted in a mix of sphagnum moss and bark mix, and it's in a west window that has some shade from a tree in the backyard. The baby plants are in a separate pot, and seem to be growing nicely in the same window.
Any suggestions?
