Phrag Fritz Schomburg & besseae
Here are a few photos of my recently acquired Phrag Fritz Schomburg and Phrag besseae. I am quite new to Phrags having the besseae the longest, about 2 months now. Hope to be able to grow them well.

I'm giving the besseae low Phalaenopsis light and the Fritz Schomburg between Phalaenopsis and Cattleya light. Daytime temperatures not above 80 for the besseae and not above 87 for the Fritz Schomburg. They are both in PrimeAgra, a form of LECA, and kept very wet in semi-hydroponic culture. Depending on how warm it is I flood the pots every two to three days. For water I am mostly water using tap and occasionally with distilled water.

Thanks for the culture tips. After seeing your plants I want one.
