Hi, I'm new to this forum and thought I'd introduce myself. I've been collecting Phals for a while now. Up to about 200. About 80% are from compots. I've...
Hi, folks, My phalaenopsis, after a successful transplant a few weeks ago, is definitely sending up a flower spike! It's about three inches long and heading up...
Kathryn, Yes you should support the spike assuming it is a hybrid plant as although Phals tend to have naturally pendant flower spikes they are displayed to ...
Congratulations on your spike! Phals are not the easiest things for me to grow so I envy those who can bloom them. But I'm learning. I do know that Phal spikes...
Hi Kathryn, I'm in the same boat as you. I have a Phal with a new spike on it and it's just about exactly the size you're describing. At first I wasn't ...
I am glad to see that this group is livening up at long last as there seems to have been very little activity over the past few months. The only thing I find a...
Thanks to Marc, Rob, and Danna for responding to my missive about the flower spike. I wasn't positive it was a flower spike until it had already started ...
Hi Kathryn, ... Home Depot. I've been trying to water less--and will keep an eye on the gnats. I haven't seen any grubs. When I transplanted it, a few of the...
Re the plant coming into flower, it all depends how big your spike is and if the flower buds are well developed. If this is the case then you may well be lucky...
I have my orchids on my windowsill right now. But with winter coming, the draft from the window is quite cold. Any suggestions on if I should move them out of...
Hi all, I've been looking for some good reference books on orchids (gotta feed that addiction, you know!) and have seen the following titles for sale on ...
<<<<<I have my orchids on my windowsill right now. But with winter coming, the draft from the window is quite cold. Any suggestions on if I should move them...
Hi Bonnie, I would definitely move them away from the cold draft. They're very tropical and like it warm. I think fluorescent lights would work. I've seen...
... That is when mine began to bloom when I had them in room that varied with outside temperature. We are talking above freezing, most of the time. Wayne...
Hi Rob, I haven't been on this list for long so don't know if books have been discussed before or not. So I'll reply to you on the list and hope I'm not being...
Hi, The American Orchid Society (www.orchidweb.org) bookstore lists the following three Bob Gordon books on Phals: Culture of the Phalaenopsis Orchid, Revised...
Hi Again, Forgot to mention that the AOS bookstore gives all the publication details on the books I mentioned, along with a brief description of the contents. ...
Hello everyone... I have a Phalaenopsis, this is it's third year and I believe I have a flower spike on it.. I have continued to fertilize and water as normal...
Dear Sandy, I think you're supposed to just treat it normally. I've had my phalaenopsis for nearly a year now, and it started growing a flower spike about...
Hello Sandy, As far as Phals. I just water twice a week in well draining media and I have them outside facing North(Florida of course). I have 5 plants there...
Hi, I suppose when you say third year, you mean it is three years old? If so, and from what you describe, things seem to be moving well, and there is little...
It just occured to me that I never introduced myself when I joined this forum the other day ! My name is Jesse Wright, I live in Lexington Kentucky. I have...
i have some phals w/mushy leaves and want to know what's causing it. i live in california with a south-facing window. the mushiness seems to happen whether...
I have no idea what to do about your problem, Adam, though undoubtedly someone here will know. I am also having a leaf problem. My beautiful phalaenopsis is...
