Oh, I know, and I did! Actually, what I did was acclimatize them at the end of winter, which they loved because there was reasonable light and tons of humidity and rain, but it wasn't too cold. So...

I have heard about the vase growing method, but I couldn't find a vase that fit the roots (they're kind of spread out to the side). Also, that type of thing would take up a lot of space on my...

My phals never spiked for me in my old apartment, which was on the hot side, even with the windows open in winter. Last winter, though, I moved to a cooler place and all of the hybrid phals that...

A Tale of Two Dendrobiums

This is more of a "hm, that's interesting" post than anything else, but I thought it was kind of interesting, so maybe others will too.

I have two nobile-type dendrobium hybrids that I purchased...

Best/favorite miniatures?

Hi everyone,

I'm in the market for some orchids (say, up to 10), and I want to focus on minis. Do you have any favorites that you like to grow? I mean true minis, not compact growers.

Den. spectabile

This is the first time it's bloomed for me, and I'm so excited by how weird and cool it looks. There are two spikes, and these are the flowers on one.
