Potted up Scarletts keikis :)
 

Today I put two keikis in med. fir bark [ soaked overnight] Really hope they do well :) The roots were Crazy :rofl: long, so I wet them till they were limber, and tucked them in the pot. Here is one that is going to a fellow orchid lover.

I've never tried bark for phals before, and thought to take the chance

Looks great!

Amazing!
How long did it take from seeing a keiki on a spike to having a separate full grown plant in bloom?

Your friend it so lucky!

Would love to hear from someone in Canada with a keiki from a blue Phal! :bowing :bowing

Thanks for sharing!

That is really nice!!! love the colour of flowers on that one not too often you see such a rich solid red in a Phal. Good job the plants look happy to mother and baby lol.

Looks great, and wow, what a lovely color! What a lucky friend you have.

I have a few keikis to pot up soon as well. I waited too long those and they are spiking while still attached to mommy. Maybe I'll let them bloom first.

Thats what this baby did, [spike on the Mom] :) Thats great you have baby spikers :rofl:
I just took the baby off including the flowers, and it has not effected it at all .Good luck with your keikis :)

rlilia, it took a year and a half for this baby to bloom [from pasting the parent plant, to blooming still attached to mom :)

Thanks so much Everyone :)

I love the dark colors! Very nice!
