Not sure whether it's is bowing it's head in shame or giving evil sidelongs at the new star.

21 buds I,m thinking I must have one of these they are so pretty .........

14 Mar, 2012

 

Does that mean you have 21 bulbs?

14 Mar, 2012

 

That's 21 from eleven large bulbs ladies! Plus others that I doubt will flower, just more new bulbs. All this from just three bulbs last year.
There is also about ten small bulbils in there too!

Plenty to keep you busy then , how long are they in flower for ?

14 Mar, 2012

 

I reckon that I have four to five weeks worth Amy.

14 Mar, 2012

 

That's fantastic! I have one flower or bud on each of mine.

Sounds good ! i'm fed up with waiting for my Orchids to flower again , I put them in a cold room for a few weeks to try to get them going , brought them back out but still nothing :o( ....

The thing about them is the number of new pseudobulbs that they do produce. Unless you do something really stupid you'll never have to buy another.

15 Mar, 2012

 

thats good news!!

im thinking about where to plant them ~ almost like an alpine bed but one that can be brought inside???

15 Mar, 2012

 

I just put my pot outdoors Sticki.

15 Mar, 2012

 

after the frosts?

15 Mar, 2012

 

Probably May time I reckon.
