In full bloom now! 😊

Hi all, my Diuris magnifica (Western Australia), aka Large Pansy Orchid, is flowering for the first time. Regards.

Hi Rudolf, sorry there is a misunderstanding: when I said "stacking", I was talking about photography! ;) The method which consists of taking several photos of the same subject by changing the sharpness zone for each of them and then assembling them to obtain only one photo in the end where all...

Hi Rudolf, wow, it’s my turn to compliment you on these very beautiful plants, very nicely photographed. 👍 Did you use stacking method?

Hi, thank you for your answer. What do you mean when you say « very cold in winter » ? How cold can it be? And how hot during the day?

Hi, thank you all for your kind comments. This plant seems healthy and grows well even if I was wondering a few months ago if it wasn't infected by a virus (please see here for pictures). However, only one leaf shows these symptoms, all the newest ones and also the new shoot seem healthy...

Hi all, here is my Paphiopedilum lowii flowering for the first time. One flower opened, 13 cm wide, 2 more to come. Regards.

Why? Do they need cool temps?

Nice plants, good luck to grow them!

Hi all, thank you for your kind comments. Yes I confirm that the foliage is totally unmotteled, it is totally dark green. Istvan, I got this plant last year from a French nursery named « Les orchidées de la Belle étoile ». This is the site: https://www.orchidees-belle-etoile.fr/ Have a nice day.

Hi all, Paphiopedilum wardii 'Album' is blooming here for the first time. The flower is 93 mm wide.

Yes, I think you are right, I moved my plant some days ago at the brighter place I can give it at this period of the year, I hope it will be enough! Thank you for your help. 👍

Thank you very much Tom, yes, it helps a lot! 👍

HI Tom, thank you very much for your feedback. What a wonderful plant when blooming, I cross my fingers to succeed one day! ;-) How often did you water your plant during the winter months? And how did you manage fertilization throughout the year? Thank you for your help.

Thank you William for the tips. 👍

Hello big923cattleya, and sorry for my late response. No misunderstanding, I understand that Holcoglossum kimbalianum can accept a fairly wide range of temperatures. I just placed my plant in a room where the temperature difference between day and night is greater than in the room where it was...

Hi, thank you big923cattleya for your answer and your search. During winter, it is behind a south facing window and it is outside from spring to autumn in a semi-shady place. Mayi it is not enough, I will try to find a more luminous place, especially in my house. I also read here that it...

Hello all, I have been growing this plant for years but have never been able to get it to flower. What does it need to induce its flowering? Thanks in advance for your help.

Beautiful plant and picture!

Thank you very much. 👍
