The Cattleya Tiffin Bells 'Orchidglade', is one with a good flower to leaf ratio and large white flowers. Marc Levenson from NCOS has grown this in the past on the windowsill, not sure he has it anymore.

I returned from spring break vacation to find this bloomed out while I was away. Not a bad presentation for no effort in staking / spacing. Looks like she bloomed June of last year (2023), and now March of 2024. I like that interval. The past 4 years I’ve been experimenting with my cattleyas and...

These are gorgeous. Well done.

Very attractive

Strong 💪 work! Cant wait to see how this works for you. I also can’t believe it’s been two years already. Amazing how fast time flies on this forum.

Yes, it is :)

Picked up these two as a pre order from Ecuagenera at the paph forum in Jan, 2024. I wasn’t expecting them to adapt and bloom so quickly. I have been branching out to smaller species that grow in similar conditions as my phrags. I’ve had some luck and a lot of fun with a group of restrepia I...

Thanks, no clue. This is just what I was told when I purchased the plants. This was years ago. I have not even looked it up in the software.

Impressive compot tray. Looks like you have a bit of work ahead of you. With Rockwool I’m very careful when the media when it’s dry, I use a construction grade M3 respirator to keep the dust out of my lungs, and gloves to keep the fibers from irritating my hands. I wet the chunks down with a...

I have not had any root growth issues with the net pots. I even have my larger phrags in 12 inch net pots and they seem to be thriving. I have seen issues with grodan cubes in solid plastic pots, also aircone pots where the media stays too wet in the middle without air and the roots suffer...

Z2816: (besseae ‘Orange Crush’ x Mem. **** Clements) This plant was acquired from The Little Greenhouse in October of 2023. It had been a number of years since they bloomed her out. Tom from TLG informed me that this came from the same flask that Hadley (Marriott Orchids) was awarded an FCC on...

I believe this is the mature height. The division I received was very tall, the one lead I grew seems to match this length as well. It really does tower over all my other cattleyas and is less than a foot from my moving light, with exception to purpurata and tenebrosa.. it’s probably the tallest.

Thank you, No clonal name was on the tag.

Not sure, still a few weeks away. Definitely will make it to the next NCOS meeting

This plant was acquired as a bare root division from Carter and Holmes in June of 2022. It’s growing in a predominantly large kiwi bark mix with a bit of grodan chunks, charcoal, and chunky perlite. It sits in a plastic net pot nested in a larger 6 inch aircone pot. After putting out a new...

… right across the border ❤️

Thank you! It is the lights. I just changed / upgraded the LED lights in this section of the grow room and it is throwing an overall cooler color.

I had no clue they could change that drastically
