Hi
I stopped by a nursery and came across these canes lying in a heap gathered after some weeding, I think.
And I just thought that they must be orchids. Dendrobiums? Or maybe even some kind of cattleya? At least they look pretty similar to a old nobile cane that I got for cane propagation (especially the thickest one).
Now, I'm not sure if these guys are beyond rescue, but I figured I'd give it a try. The nursery woman just think I'm plain crazy, but anyways... I thought since they are still firm and green close to the roots they might not be completely dead yet (although well on the way, and possibly way past the point where I can manage to bring them back to life).
Checking around on
Orchid backbulbs etc, I'm now at a loss as to what to do with them. I'm considering letting them stand in rocks, or lying them down on moist river sand. Not so keen on spag n' bag, but if you guys insist...
What do you think? Any suggestions?
