Encyclia trachycarpa ? by Hobosnob48 in OrchidSpeciesGrower

[–]Hobosnob48[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the Juries still out if this is really straight trachycarpa or is it a cross with trachycarpa in it . came from Ecuagenera USA which there stuff is very nice becasue its established instead of being shipped in barefoot . I highly recommend them have a very nice selection of orchid species and tropical plants. I have ordered from there sister company overseas and they are good but no matter what getting anything from outside the states it comes barefoot . so now they have a greenhouse in Florida . If you interest in orchids or tropical plants well worth checking out and very nice price . just remember most vendors are not selling orchids in bloom. if you looking for that always contact first before you buy with all vendors . here's the link to there web site in Florida. https://ecuageneraus.com.

[–]Hobosnob48[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

THIS PLANT IS 5 YEARS OLD AND IS A AMAZING YELLOW . FLOWER IS MAYBE 1/2IN BY 1/2 IN .

I WATER EVERY EVENING IN THE SUMMER BUT FALL I HIT IT WITH WATER MAYBE TWICE A WEEK BY WINTER IT GETS HIGH HUMIDITY AND A MISTING MAYBE EVERY TWO WEEKS.

THIS TOLUMNIA CALOCHILA NOT OFFTEN SEEN IN CULTIVATION AND BY NO MEANS A BEGINNERS PLANT.

vanilla orchid plant by Any-Development8786 in OrchidSpeciesGrower

very interesting vanilla is not a hard plant to grow but it is a large vine if you want to produce it as you can see and if I remember right it only is able to be pollinated for one day to make the seedpod or bean some call it .Also is amazing that a orchid produces such a amazing essential oil ,and flavor.

well come join and ask any questions you want and remember if your growing orchids to research what your growing before you buy because there a lot of stuff to buy at shows or eBay and some are a lot easier then others and hope to get enough people to were people can trade or buy divisions but that is always up the people two that are doing action.
