I always stop and look at the fairrieanums! Nice one.

My plants are drying out faster too. I'm not a huge fan of alcohol, but have some other stuff on the way.

While I agree with others that they are busy but have good plants etc, if you do get any plants from them, keep them separate for a long while and just do some preventative treatments... my latest purchase was from them in September (my first from them ever!) and I am 90% sure that's where my...

I actually thought that too. I appreciate the clarification!

This is an older thread, but I never updated it with both blooms open, so here they are! The whole flowers became more saturated, including the lips. These blooms are long gone, but the plant has 3 new sheaths emerging!

Woah! It appears you figured it out! Gorgeous.

It's a wild montanum!! I visit them in my old neighborhood in Montana every year if I can. They grew abundantly in my back yard while living there. This particular one was in a roadside ditch! Here's the post I made about it: Thread 'Cypripedium montanum in situ'...

Haha thank you! Okay, that is great to know! It would be a weekly treatment at this point?

Welcome!! Good question.

Also a good idea! And very simple. If I'm treating regularly anyway something like this might work no problem

Really gorgeous color. A keeper for sure!

This looks like it smells divine!
