The other day at Trader Joe's I was one again seduced by an orchid.
I've gotten pretty good at not bringing them home. In fact the majority of the time I don't even want what they have.
Unfortunately this time they did. A large green fragrant brassia type hybrid.
I love brassia orchid and their hybrids. I just do. I bought one two years ago and killed it slowly. I felt terrible and have shied away from them since.
This guy made me ready to try again.
The flowers are about as big as my hand, and smell of honeysuckle.
The plant is huge! I do mean that. I can't properly express how much room this one psuedobulb is taking up. This is my second biggest plant. It's taller bigger than all my cymbidiums and my grammatophyllum scriptum. And it's just one psuedobulb!
My other largest is only the largest in height. It's forgiven because it's got a tidy growth habit and skinny canes.
Where am I going to with it lol?
Also... please please give me advice on how to get it to thrive!
