At any rate, I also grow Brandwine, and it's another great tomato. They taste delicious, and it keeps fruiting into the heat of summer a little longer than other varieties do. They are also a...

Last summer I did in fact water it twice daily, and have resumed that now that the weather is getting warmer. I'm sure that helps a great deal, but it doesn't seem like it helped enough :( And it...

Okay, I've had this for three years now, and it spikes every year with 6 or 8 or even 10 spikes, but the buds blast before they get a chance to open. It's very frustrating that it has spiked three...

I only ever see them around plants that should have been repotted a year or two ago. They like soft, wet things, so they aren't fond of fresh bark. Drowning will kill them, and repotting will keep...

I've used Terro liquid ant bait for this exact problem in a Dendrobium pot in the past. You may not have that brand, but it is just a boric acid solution. It's kind of thick and syrupy, and you just...

Are you giving them lots of sun, and a cool period in the fall? These like lots of sun. I grow mine outside from May until late October or early November, and they get eight hours or so of direct sun...

Looks like a bloom sheath. Sheathes will be thinner and more pliable than leaves. I can't tell from the picture how thick or thin that is, but I'm sure you can easily tell in person.

Why yes, you are right! We are talking about two different things. I didn't know it had a name, so thanks for that.

But at any rate, the plant I have growing like that seems to be happy, although...

I think you just need to water it more. It looks dehydrated. Even the roots look like they're starting to shrink.

When you buy Oncidiums, look for bright green leaves and plump pseudobulbs. Older pseudobulbs will often have some degree of wrinkling, but they should still be plump, not flat/shriveled. If you can...

I think that Odontoglossum and Cochlioda were merged with Oncidium a few years ago, so technically the nothogenus Beallara no longer exists. The plants which used to be Beallara are now Aliceara...
