Leafless Orchid Progress


An article in 'Orchids' magazine encouraged me to put my old, almost dead piece of Dendrophyllax funalis on wood instead of leaving it in a black plastic basket.
What a difference!
I put it on wood - just an old stick left over from an Andy's Orchids plant I'd killed - and I think you can see I just used old phone wire to tie it in place.
That was in either September '09 or October '09. The picture at the left was taken 12/1/09 Wow! I guess the article was right, these really do like to be on wood.
Now if it'll just flower for me....
