You are way ahead of most people for the blooming season Ginger, thanks to your 'no wintering' culture! It is very nice to see all these beautiful plants and blooms!

Your plants are beautiful, what's your secret? I've had one plant for many years and it's alive but has never thrived. I grow it on a west facing windowsill. How do you fertilize yours?

I collected so many that I didn't have anyplace in my house to put them for wintering and believe me I worried about what would happen to them. Still have my fingers crossed.

Thank you

it hasn't always been so easy. Last year I started growing them under lights, use a cheap humidifier & fan. They seem to love this set up. I rarely fertilize and then it is a weak solution of Orchid's Limited's Green Jungle.

Nice plants and pics. Mine are just starting to wake up. Can't wait to see the root tips and flowers!

Joyorchid · #8 03-23-2014, 07:01 PM

Ginger, may I inquire about your lights and distance from the plants?

I tried growing mine in a little tabletop greenhouse for awhile thinking it would like the humidity but it needed more airflow. I'm growing roots perhaps soon a spike. I can't tell you how many times I almost lost it. Tough little buggers!
