Orchid Seeds Germinated On My Tree!

While searching for threads about something else, I came across this old thread that I enjoyed reading.

Do you have an update on the little seedling in the tree? Has it bloomed yet? Did you sow anything else that managed to germinate and develop?

The seedling isn't so little anymore but it still hasn't bloomed yet...


Laelia anceps by Epiphyte, on Flickr

A couple years ago I spotted a few more seedlings on the tree. They definitely aren't Laelia anceps but I don't know who they are.

I posted a blog entry with some more or less relevant pics and thoughts... Update On Orchid Seeds That Germinated On My Tree.

I know this is a old thread but i would love to hear some more updates. I am thinking of collecting a small stick from the fakahatchee strand which will hopefully have some symbiotic fungi to germinate some orchid seeds.

It's worth a try!! Last year the largest of the seed grown Laelia anceps bloomed...

That tree looks great. Congratulations! Any anceps spikes visible yet?
