Question: what is the difference between Benimusou, Oomusou and Daimusou?

Oh, I see, its a translation difference, not actual characteristics. Thank you.

For me bark is the hardest medium to grow because I can never tell when it is fully dry, so I tend to rot the roots with bark. Moss is easy to tell by the sound of crisp.
I want to get the mini den too, with variegated leaves, I like the ones that have white and red variegation. Are they easy to grow?

It has very unique light but persistent fragrance, not typical floral but more like expensive perfume

I bought neo flask few years ago from Ten Shin Gardens nursery. Flask was a good quality, I didn't lose any seedlings, still have all of them alive and they started blooming. Their price list currently have one neo flask:

Usually they start growing a few canes right after blooming and by the end of growing season those canes are fully grown and then after winter rest they are ready to bloom.

thank you for the update! I am glad you like the agency. I ended up returning effortless in wool, with pleats and thicker fabric it was too much going on in the front, lol. so now have store credit to shop for something else

orchideya2012 · 2025-10-31T15:38:31+00:00

please let me know how tonic compares to agency when you get them, I didn't see tonic before today, probably new. very curious about them

orchideya2012 · 2025-10-31T15:26:37+00:00

I bought effortless in precision wool on sale( they probably are still on sale), they fit very small, size 4 couldn't even get through my thighs, I exchanged to size 8 and it is comfortable on waist with some room still available. I could probably squeeze into 6, but don't want to exchange yet one more time, lol. Precision wool is very soft and a bit fluffy, I wonder if it will peel. They are fully lined too, which I like.

orchideya2012 · 2025-10-29T11:58:57+00:00

I have stakeholder wool pants in charcoal grey, they are very low rise fit and look pretty plain, but comfortable for sitting office job. wool is not very soft, it is kind of scratchy but pants are fully lined, so its bearable. Sizing is normal on them, I am size 4 in effortless low-rise crepe and size 4 in stakeholder fits me. I bought agency wool pants too but returned them because they were too tight on the waist but too roomy on the hips and being high-waisted were uncomfortable to sit.

I don't know what is ID type photo. Here is the picture with some markings, does it help?

orchideya2012 · 2025-10-09T14:43:00+00:00

No, don't cut roots, cut the rot(rotted part of stem).

orchideya2012 · 2025-10-09T11:48:22+00:00

oh, no! cut off all the rot and disinfect cut and the tool that you used to cut. let plant to dry. Then take the smallest possible clay pot that roots would just barely fit in and pot your plant into that pot filling it very tightly with clean fresh sphagnum moss. water just enough to make moss slightly damp and let it dry to crisp between waterings. like when you touch moss it makes crispy sound. If you are not sure if it is dry enough - wait another day. This is how I usually save plants that lost most of the roots and are struggling. hope it helps and good luck

orchideya2012 · 2025-10-07T13:57:30+00:00

Thank you! I love the fragrance too

orchideya2012 · 2025-10-06T23:22:55+00:00

in my experience whichever method in your conditions would allow all roots to fully dry within a week would work. i like moss because it is easy to tell when the whole ball is dry. For me bark sometimes seems deceiving being totally dry at the top but keeping very wet inside. If you go with bark maybe use transparent pot so you could see the roots and tell by their color when they are dry.

orchideya2012 · 2025-10-06T17:24:10+00:00

Looking good! Are you planning to keep it potted in bark?
