My windowsill Female
Default My windowsill

I was doing some mounting and repotting today and decided to take a few pics of my windowsill in the bedroom. Sorry about the lighting - it was already nearly dark.

The space needs a little adjustment. Some orchids are new and I'm still trying to work out what lighting/temps suit them best so they will likely be moved around until I can see that they are happy. Some also need repotting.

In the first pic, the plant in front is Doritis pulcherrima var coerulea. Just behind are three freshly mounted Den trantuaniis. Behind that is my new Den sulphureum posted in the dendrobium section.

In the second pic, the plant in front is Den peguanum with lots of new growth. Just behind that is another Den trantuanii, and to the left is Laelia lucasiana.

The third pic you can see all the orchids on the dresser with my Bulbo lobbii to the far right. You can't see the Sophronitis cernua and Haraella retrocalla hanging above though.

Thanks for looking!

Thank you all! Very kind, all of you.

In case you're wondering if I'm obsessed with Den trantuanii, the story is that they are all originally from one plant which arrived mounted with no roots and promptly fell apart. So now I have four!

I have a few duplicates that are the result of 'self-dividing'

I love your terminology! It makes it sound like such a positive thing!
