Annual cycle
I am a beginner, as you will be able to tell from my question. I am trying to determine the general annual cycle for orchids, not a particular species. Here is my question:
Let's start with when the orchid is
1) flowering
then this is followed by
2) a rest period (not dormancy)
then this is followed by
3) root growth
then this is followed by
4) pseudobulb growth
then this is followed by
5) leaf growth
then this is followed by
6) flower spikes
and then hopefully 1) flowering.
Is this the correct order of events in the annual cycle of orchids? Please don't be specific about particular species, or specific length of time for each; rather I am looking for a general sequence of events in the orchid year.
Thanks.
