Mexies from Paph Paradise

[user 149187]

This is a 1/2 flask community pot of my Mexipediums from Dave. The cross was ‘Howard’ x ‘Aggie’ though I don’t know the lineage “further up stream.”

Conditions: east-facing windowsill with filtered direct sun and LED lights. Water: tap (7.9pH, 250ppm CaCO3) soaked once a week for 1h. Fert: organic quarterly, MSU monthly. Temps: down to 16C in winter, up to 33C in summer. I think that about covers it. Oh…humidity: 25-45%




Also have some sibling crosses of these in flask.

I didn’t actually check it (bad hobby breeder, I know). But used distilled with an addition of 20% tap
