visit to a little orchid display (img heavy)

A while ago, I visited a small orchid display at a historical formal garden (Filoli Gardens) near where I live. It was quite small but also very lovely... I never got around to posting pictures until...

Lovely! Scent is definitely quite variable, not only between plants but also the people smelling the flower! How would you describe it?

After I moved the Sobralia to a shadier area, it seems to have stopped dropping leaves – maybe that's the secret to stopping all that wilting. The old leaves that were already browning continued to...

Thanks for all the discussion! I will be aiming for a well-drained mix for sure, it seems. Very nice growing, by the way, SouthPark! It's kind of amazing these tiny plants can survive in such chunky...

What an interesting little plant! Its accepted name is now Porpax spirodela. Unfortunately, it seems that Google's results for "Porpax" are mainly showing tips for Epidendrum porpax.

For the first couple of years when I was growing orchids (only phals back then), I didn't fertilize at all, and the plants still bloomed quite nicely every year. :)

Unfortunately, I don't have any specific metrics, but if I recall correctly, var. pedunculatum is on the smaller end. :)

Thanks so much for the tips! :biggrin: I'll be trying a pebble or scoria mix then, probably with something else thrown in to retain a bit more moisture.

re the Sobralia: It's been dropping leaves rapidly. I have a feeling it's because the orchid room's too warm – especially since it didn't drop any leaves while it was outdoors (I'm sure being wrapped...

Very nice! Yeah, it seems like T. cirrhifera is considered a synonym of T. orchidea. I really love the appearance of Trichoglottis species, but I don't think I could accommodate their pendant growth...

Sarcochilus (ceciliae) care

I was reading about the care this particular species requires. Most websites seem to recommend scoria/bark; would sphagnum work? I ask mainly because sphagnum has historically worked well for most of...

Not too sure about the red tips – maybe inadequate water and/or too much...

I wonder why the Sobralia didn't drop any leaves while it stayed outside for 2 weeks. Maybe those conditions were conducive towards retaining leaves...? They weren't very good conditions.
