Before i start ........... Hi - first post!
Im Ben, 22 and live in midlands, uk and new to this board and started to really get into orchids after my partner bought me one and have started a bit of a collection so thought i would join.
First of all im trying to identify the below orange/yellow orchid with odd upper left/right petals (poss mutation?)
Second of all i have started pollination with the below (which i believe is 'elegant polka dots' unless anyone can correct me) and flowing is now as expected withering and closing over the stimatic patch. Hopefully should produce some beautiful flowers!
Any advice on culturing seedlings when harvested. Do i need to grow in nutrient jelly or are there any other methods. Appreciate any input on this. Plus is there anyway to know if you have found a unique cross/specie?
Third of all just for fun...a pic of some of my collection (welcome any comments). I also have a green/purple zgopetalum, dendrobium & pink phal (not pictured) but thought id say anyway!
Sorry for the long post & thanks for any help in advance.
