Bought this plant last year in flower. Flowered showed some promise but roots near gone on plant. Recovering well now & I'm sure it will improve.

Very pretty. Love the color.

I do too and the shape is so nice. I can't believe it bloomed if it hardly had any roots. I bet I would have had to wait another year. Well done.

Hello Roy, how did you help this orchid grow more roots?

SaraJean · #5 03-19-2018, 03:14 PM

Stunning colors and it looks so nice and flat!

Oh that is really, really gorgeous. I'm going to postpone my trip to Australia for a few years now until you have a division available

Pull the plant apart, clean up the root system & pot it into a fresh mix & water it with a root promoting hormone.
Kept warm & in shade. Stake it so it doesn't move about.
