My Phrags sit in 2” of water (1/3 tap, 2/3 Distilled and a small amount of fertiliser.) They suck that water up like crazy! I need to refresh it every other day so they don’t dry out! I do flush the Phrags once a week with my tap water that is very hard (lime/Calcium) It flushes out salts. Gives...

I LOVE😻It! My fav Paph! Hands down!

I had bought the two Species Phrag Pierciei and Phrag Longifolium for my sister for her Birthday. She lost her husband to COVID however and was too despondent to want to care for them. I brought them here. They are now mine

As promised, I have a picture of the teeny tiny new growth!!

I love the Garrison Sneaky pot method! I have a Hannah Popow which is infamous for creeping. I lost one new growth in an attemp to repot at an angle (Argh…Total Fail) I am going to be keeping my eye on the current new growth with small cup ready to sneak in

As everyone knows, I have been jumping for joy due to new growth in my Phrags I received from Ecuagenera last March! I have now found just the tiniest speck of very bright green at the base of my Single growth of Phrag Longifolium! I search for new growth daily, and then I glance at my deceased...

Oh but I LOVE Ho Chi Minh! Gorgeous!

Oh, and I love RePotMe for orchid supplies

Actually, Orchid Limited has closed it’s nursery to the public permanently! Their online presence (Orchid Web) has grown immensely! Locals (in the Twin City Metro Area) can get curb side pickup! They contact you when you are ready! Actually, Eucagenera is far more reasonably priced. They make it...

Ha ha, I had the fellow upstairs flood my house when his aquarium sprang a bad leak! Me and the Super were banging on his door and ended up just going in and trying to get the water up! Took the noise of the water Vac to wake up the resident! He comes to find me catching and saving fish and...

I am located in central MN I have pretty much received all the growing advice I need. Going to be using a fan with cool mist this summer on hot days

I have a Nikon 3000 I bought between 2008-2010. I is GREAT for any plant and flower photos. Does WONDERFUL close up photos!! I spend a tremendous amount of time photographing the lilacs, peonies and other flowering perennials. I need to start using it more often on my orchids when they flower. I...

Well, with my Fritz Schomberg I couldn’t keep up with dead leaves! I had 4 healthy plants and two babies and in two months I was removing the final dead growth! I was told to keep the rhizome and roots intact in pot and treat as others, in case new growth would occur! I am about to give up...

Oh, I believe I am already hooked for life! I am quite enamoured with my Phrags! I have received much good advice from this forum on how to protect my Kovachii and Besseae primary hybrids from summer hot spells!

Forgive the duplication of pics! I am not touching anything!

And Now The 1st Post arrives! You can REALLY tell I am a beginner here

Well, forgive this, somehow I lost my post, so need to post a reply to said lost post (at least the pics are here!) I have New Growth, and all babies (6 total) are growing happily! I received these primary hybrids from Eucagenera last April and suffered Horrible damage due to heat! Had a...

I am very excited! 3 of my plants are showing new growth! I received my collection of primary hybrids from Eucanegera! I also have 2 species. I had terrible damage over a monstrously hot summer! Lost Fritz Schomberg, most new growth except on Ecuagenera Gigi, and quite a number of younger...

I have iPhone and Safari…pic is very clear! Beautiful white Paph!!

Ha ha, I have had that happen to my orchids, Especially my Phrags due to long flexible leaves! Had a few depotting incidents! Had to train the kitten with copious tin foil to stay out of the south window. I also have to keep them far enough off the floor that they can’t be snatched by a long reach
