Default The Lycaste growing



These are the Lycaste. They are all deciduous and will lose the leaves and then bloom from the bottom of the bulbs. They like the same light as cattleyas. Also will take the heat right along with them also. They need lots of fresh air to keep the leaves from getting spotty and ugly. Dont water the leaves but water them at the bulbs. You can mist them for a cool off in the daytime but make sure they dry before the sun goes down.



heres where they grow



I got the spanish moss out of the woods. Its getting hard to find around here and harder to get too it. I have to wait for a big limb to fall before I get enough.
