gorgeous orchids as usual, and give yourself a lot of credit nelson. yes the quality of the plant is important, but it takes the hand of a detailed caring person who pays attention to detail to grow them at the quality level that you grow them. and that lychee tree solidifies that, lychees are not easy to grow just know that and that tree is fantastic! she is going to reward you for it and i also believe lychees produce fruit every other year, (i know the regular version does) so if you want fruit yearly you might want to grab another lychee tree or propagate that one so you can have fruit yearly. but with different cultivations now days it might be a yearly producer for you. i bet they will taste amazing, just look how beautiful it is.

Hey your "Kingianum" is a hybrid.

Kingianum does need to go doen in temperatures to spike while 'dark joy' lives like your other dendrobiums as it is a very strong and nice mix.

@@naturenel I would love to share another tip with you about tolumnia. They thrive on just pure water and humidity. Feed them lightly and seldomly. Imagine growing on small twigs and thin branches which are semi new. The orchid doc has a great video of Tolumnia in the wild in Jamaica you know her. They are small plants and they don't need much. Since your collection is small there is an ebay sellar Named: Imported Orchids aka Angelstradesunlimited They are selling tolumnia 4 a piece and if you buy 8-12 you will get different ones and they happen to sometimes send extra seedlings of other kinds of orchids. If my collection ever dies or needed to be restarted I would order 16-20+ from them. You will get all forms of jairak tolumnia.

It was nice to see the bromeliads at the end of the video! I only have about two years of orchid care experience so far and I live in Connecticut so it's been a little challenging figuring out what works.

If it makes it feel any better, it took my years just to learn how to bloom my first orchid. That’s what makes them special. Once you learn how to grow them, that’s when the collections usually take off. Happy growing and never give up. Make the journey part of the experience of your orchid passion.

Yes. I’m only watering every other day and sometimes every 3 to 4 days if it’s wet outside. In summer I do water daily. It’s too hot. As far as feeding I start with a very low feeding at half the recommended dosage 1/2 tsp to gal of water. After a month of that initial feeding, I feed monthly at 1 tsp. To a gallon. That’s mainly for 20-20-20 and cal mag, and Super Thrive. For epson salt I do 2 tsp per gall.

Hi. What media do you use for the cymbidium? Mine does not flower and it’s huge. I also live in Miami near homestead. 😊

@naturenel

4 ай бұрын

Believe it or not I use the same method as my Phalaeonopsis. I do use a terracotta pot with slits on the sides to give more drainage. I add packing bits to the bottom of the pot, then I presoak New Zealand moss in water and use that as the main medium. Water loosely. I let it dry out in between watering a. I never water if the moss is wet. Same for a Phals. Also feed in Spring and Summer. That will help it with next years blooms. The food is only to make the plant stronger in order to produce more blooms at its blooming season. It’s not going to bloom out of season if you feed it more. I made the rocky mistake in the beginning. I would feed for blooms and was always disappointed. If you can use rain water in your fertilizer or well water that would be extra bonus.

Phal you’re showing at 44.54 - yellowish with pointier petals from MS - do you have the tag? I love it

@naturenel

4 ай бұрын

Sorry. Most phals don’t have tags. They get their phals from Thailand where they are constantly creating all sorts of crosses. But since there are so many, they don’t register a name for each Phal. It’s very time consuming and expensive for large growing. The great part about that is sometimes you come across something so unique and out of this world beautiful with if all the crosses. Chances are you may not see it again once the entire stock of seedlings are sold. It takes 4 to 5 years to grow from seed to blooming size. If the grower decides to bring back a specific cross, it may take years before you see it again. Many times thy don’t repeat the cross. Only the ones that are the most popular because they sell fast at big box stores. That’s why it’s so exciting for me to collect specialty cross standard phals.

What type of medium you use for your phals? My phal s do not produce big and so many buds. Thanks.
