Introducing my Dtps. Tzu Chiang Sapphire and Sedirea japonica 'Seigyoku Maru'! Both of them arrived this past week and it is all Buds fault! :rofl: Sorry for the very bad pictures, I'm a no-talent with a camera. :blushing: The Dtps. is cared for like a Phal.? The Sedirea is a mini. It is sooo cute, fragrant and from Orchid Web. At japaneseorchids I was outbid every time.
There is a Bamboo stick in the pot - the moisture meter? Do I water when the stick is dry? Almost dry? When it needs water, do I run water over the moss or do I spray it? Help, help HELP PLEASE!
Without further ado - ta-da, drumroll:
Oh, and the Sapphire is from Kawamoto orchids.
I love them both, I'm a happy camper! :D

That is one big pile of sphag!

I am super jealous, those are very lovely additions :-) I'm sure the others more experienced than I will chime in as far as your questions go.

Thank you escualida!

Dendy83, I was jealous too when Bud posted pictures of his Dtps. and Sedirea. I cured my jealousy by searching for and buying identical orchids. :lol: Well, the Sedirea is not quite identical, but close enough. Now I have to stop buying orchids, I am out of space. :(

Love the colour of that Dtps. I believe they are now all classed as Phals and they take the same care. The Sedirea japonica is cute!

For the Sederea, culture is similar to Phals with a little bit more light needed.

butterfly muse and NYCorchidman, Kawamotoorchids still has some! :evil:
My rack is full as well, if I want to get another orchid or two, I'll have to give away some. *sigh*

I went there and I looked and I whimpered. Friday is my last day at work for 6 weeks (I have to do a field school for summer semester), so I just can't right now. But I definitely pinned it on Pinterest so I wouldn't forget. I will buy one as a wedding present to myself <_<
