What it this orchid?
Hello everyone!
I'm new on this forum and also a beginner into growing orchids;they've been my favourite flowers since childhood but so many years I stayed away because they are very expensive and I don't know how to take care for them.
A few years ago,I bought a pretty common orchid and I followed my friend's advice by watering her once a week,just flooded in the sink.
For some reason,the advice didn't work for my orchid so I've lost her...
Now,I'm feeling lucky to try to grow orchids again but I have a little problem:
my friend from Thailand gave me an orchid branch(without roots)and I've tried to make it grow roots but I'm not sure I was doing the right thing...
First of all,I have no ideea what kind of orchid is,they are several types,one of them prefer more water and sun,some of them like more dry soil and no direct sun light.
I looked on google and nothing came up.
The orchid has dry,rought and yellowish leaves which are disposed the same way as Appendicula Cornuta but the flowers don't look the same.It's an orchid with small tinny orange and crimson red flowers(the bottom is red and the upper is orange with ruffled petals);it also has white/grey aerian roots.
Please help,I cannot find it!!!
may be I'll try to post a picture with this particular orchid.
