terete top cut

[nancy]

Hi Jen - Lucky you, to be able to leave them out all the time! I'm thinking that I got a couple of blooms each of the first two years, but they began to bloom with enthusiasm in the third summer.
Another FL resident said he attached his to those wire garden fence things (the kind you get in bundles, they are about 2' tall, white wire, hook together?) in a flower bed behind shorter things - not in full sun, but he gets flowers regularly, and just re-tops the plants as they get too tall; just adds the cuts to the others (I would think that as the roots get crazier, you have less need to tie or clip the new plants to the old).
Somebody in my orchid society attached these to the outside of PVC pipe with a bunch of holes drilled in it; then just floods the pipe with water to wet the plants (the roots grew through the holes, too). Another un-lovely but workable idea.
Regards - Nancy
