Phal Lobbii

[ryrycochinco]

I really want to get my hands on one on those. Does anyone know a reliable seller that is selling phal Lobbii for a fair price. Thanks

Btw, I already found a seller but they don't ship in winter and I was hoping to get one for christmas.

[ryrycochinco]

Come on guys!

Sorry I can't help.. or only for EU Vendors.

[ryrycochinco]

thanks anyway, nenella.

I bought mine from Ten Shin Gardens, they came to Montreal orchid show, so I preordred it together with my Haraella and couple phals.
It was a good sized plant with healthy roots.
Now, I think I am killing it though. I potted it into moss and it seems like it doesn't like it that much. I need to check the roots and maybe mount it.

[ryrycochinco]

Yeah, you should probably mount it. All the lobbii's I drool over on google images are, LOL!

btw I just went on ten shins website, and they don't ship during the winter.

I had one in moss before and it died pretty quickly too. I now have another one that I got mounted and so far it's thriving. From the little that I know about them, they seem to like a lot of air around the roots and they like to dry quickly. So good luck with yours!

I got one off ebay from Clackamas Orchids (canbyorchid on ebay) last year. It's a teeny-tiny seedling but plenty healthy and still growing okay despite my chronic neglect. Their seedlings tend to be very cheap ($10 or less) and they sometimes throw in bonus plants if you order a few. Hope this helps!

Orchid Web has them and I'm sure they will ship them during the winter. Here is a link: Orchid of the Week Library: Phalaenopsis lobbii
