Bought two new orchids!!

[(..._...)]

I bought two orchids!! And for those of you who helped me choose, I picked up Oda. Fort Point, as well as a Nobile- type Den. (my first den) : Wave King 'Butterfly"

I have pics of what they will look like on my blog:
Orchids 9

could anyone give my tips on the den Nobile? I stop watering from late november until the buds show up, is that correct? oh and ease of on the fertiliser beginning in the fall/end of summer.

I usually use Halloween through Valentine's Day as a rough idea of when certain chids need their rest.

believe me, once the cooler weather is in our thoughts, there will be lots of conversations on the subject

Wave King is one of my fave nobiles, the colour is just magnificent!

I agree!! New orchids are fun .. I love the whole process... picking out your choices before going to the greenhouse, going to the greenhouse, walking out of the greenhouse with plants that you didn't intend to purchase, promise to pick up the orchids you actually went to the greenhouse for on your next visit

actually.. I was good this time!! I have wanted Oda. Fort Point for a long time!! and it was either a den. Nobile or a Catt... but I figure the Catt has nice blooms, but the plant I liked was VERY large. Soo, now I have a dend that has some keikis on it, so I can also have more plants for free!!
