Phalaenopsis Bellina Pink

My Bellina Pink opened one of her buds today; it is stunning (but I am biased :)) No scent just yet, but hoping it comes soon.

I had posted in the beginner thread regarding a question about my Gigantea Alba about repotting due to some questionable media it was in. I did end up repotting it early last week. It seems to have...

Yeah ... I'm really leaning towards repotting it even though I know there's a good chance it'll set it back. My gut feeling is that moss is not doing it any favors. Ugh. I would've repotted it a long...

Hi everyone. I have a question about my gigantea alba. I have only watered it once in my care since I've had it (which is about a month). It's in 100% moss, which is what is what it came to me in. My...

It turned out to be pest damage; it is infested with snails and aphids and had black rot on 2 of the 4 bulbs unfortunately. I do not have this orchid any longer sadly. :(
