Phrag besseae

[Guarceñosis]

A new bloom of P besseae. It has a NHS of 8cm and pretty flat. It's grown in a flat clay pot, similar to Tomkalina's style.

Yes; beautiful! Thanks for sharing.

What kind of drainage do you have at the bottom of the clay pot?

 

[Guarceñosis]

I drilled several holes in the bottom with wall drill.

Very nice red! I have at least one besseae in low bud. Can only hope it's as nice as this one.

I notice that a lot of your plants has moss growing in the pots, how often do you water your plants and what is your water source? is RO or city water

I try to water phraga every day, lots of water, sometimes twice a day. The sorce of water is from a natural spring from up in the mountain. It's quite pure -0- TDS and neutral acidity.

It depends on your conditions. In general, RO is the bomb. And nobody waters every day indoors.

So you are essentially watering frequently with distilled water. What are you using for fertilizer, and how often are you applying it??

I fertilize every week with local fertilizer like Wuxal Ca and Total that probably you wont find in US.

I have all my plants are in a greenhouse in the tropics, that is open in the sides. No temp or humidity control.

 

[Guarceñosis]
