Today is full moon day. my pigeon orchids bloomed. I over water them and they bloomed for the second time.
I read you points and kept the roots open and water them .

Sudden temperature drop is here and these plants are full of buds. Pat said this too. I went around my neighbourhood and checked the orchid bushes .They are ready with buds. It wi;; take one week to bloom them all.

Hi thakshila

yes its fantastic here. some buds boolmed yestrday .And some of them today. . Full of white folowers. I think 50% of gardens got this orchid bush .
It hads a delecate crincled lip. ...I think its named after pigeon bec of the quantity of flowers.
Sorry I am not able to take a pic...these days.

These flowers live only one day too.
