Cut out brown, leave green. Repeat as necessary, during recovery.

I think so, also.

Don't know about this species, but typically, Bulbophyllum flowers don't last all that long... Perhaps a week? I know that B. nymphopolitanum and B. echinolabium last perhaps 4 days (in my conditions).

I grow a number of species in cool-cold winter conditions, including wardii (does better for me that way), tonsum (still seedlings) and some of the brachypetalums. A short spell of overnight lows that remain above freezing is nothing to worry about, as long as the days get warm, and the roots...

Second that. Nice people. Pleasant to deal with.

I've got a bunch of NOIDs. I'm primarily a species person, so happily relate to my NOIDs on their purty flowers.

Not sure if this is the right forum, but... Got a shipment from Ecuagenera today. I must say that I was really surprised by the size and quality of the plants! Mostly Zootrophions, as I seem to have a thing for the most unusual of species, but also some Draculas, and "other" genera. All but one...

Wow.

Plants in hotels, offices, shopping malls, etc.

The rescue phals are great. I work for an interior landscaper, and before the plague, had many accounts with contracts for blooming orchids - always phals. These are tough plants. As they bloomed out, I brought them home, and as they've rebloomed, given them to my wife for the library that...

Riiiiiight.

Keep in mind that in the "Good Old Days" orchids traveled by wind-powered ships. Transit time could be measured in months.

At least twice. Once gets the adults and juveniles, second time gets the recently hatched eggs.

I grow inside, under lights. Not gonna use Orthene there. Talstar P seems to work real well (so far), and is odorless.

You can generally tell if a plant is starting to spike by feeling it up. If the crown feels fat at the base, it's usually a spike forming.

You should always be aggressive when you spot bugs. All-out war is appropriate.

I have found Talstar P does a good job, both as a foliar spray, and as a drench (to get anything in the root zone). It's a synthetic pyrethroid, comes as an aqueous emulsion, and does not smell bad. I use it inside my home. Not systemic, however - you'll need to spray a second time after two...

Yes. Often something chewing on the bottom of the leaf is reflected in yellow spots on the top.

What's underneath the yellow spots?
