I have just spent three days at a local Orchid Conference. I went to the Phalaenopsis lectures conducted by the owner of a well known nursery in the area. He...
The Harlequin I have only had 5 flowers on it. I purchased it in flower. It is my understanding, and I could very likely be wrong, that all the harlequins...
Harlequins are not a new phase. There are a great number of different forms of Harelquins which are coming out of Taiwan. I would encourage you to look...

I was wrong. Mine originally had 7 blooms 2 1/2" (6-7cm). Mine was purple and white. Not great coloring, but the only one that I had come across outside of...
Thanks to you both for your thoughts. I did purchase a few mericlones so I could be sure of getting a true harliquin flower. The local shows have had some very...
Hi, I wonder if anyone can help me. I bought some phals a couple of months back, and these are running into problems. Two have died, the roots turned out to...
Hi, K - What are your phals potted in - what type of pots, and what medium? Is it a fir bark mix or is it moss? What is your culture like, in other words,...
Hi, Thanks for the quick response. I am in India, in the west coast, where the climate is hot and humid most of the year. I have been growing phals for a...
Dear Dubash, It may be hihg elecroconductivity value of your medium. Coco nut husks contains salt, and therfore high electroconductivity value, so you have to...
Hi again, K - I don't know anything about the treatment that Rifat suggests - but I do hope it brings you luck with your sick plants. I doubt, though, that ...

Hi all, First, many thanks for all your replies to my phal problems. To answer a couple of them, I want to say that I leach out the coconut husk by keeping...
A friend gave me a new orchid. It is NOT a phalaenopsis, but I need to find out what it is to care for it better. It has a very, very long stem and apparently...
Hi, Kathryn - I have no idea what type of orchid you have. Does your plant have pseudobulbs? It is very difficult to identify without a picture. My guess...
Hi Kathryn, I thought it might possibly be a dendrobium as they have little wiry roots, and some have white flowers on a long stem. It would be real helpful to...
Sounds like Brassica, or Brassia. Go to http://www.orchidspecies.com/ to confirm which one. Unless it has outgrown the pot, or the media broken down, there...

Hi Mike, I was looking at the photo of your phal and I see those clear containers here in the area where I live a good bit. Many times the name of the plant is...
