- Dendrobium Palpabrae
- Gastrochilus Somai
- Schoenorchis Fragrans
- Nageliella Purpurea
Since we moved to a new flat a few months ago, most of our orchids seem happier. Quite a few are producing new growth and/or blooms after having laid low for awhile. They’re in our kitchen (again) but it is a little warmer and brighter than the last place. We’ve also lost a few of our orchids that were unfortunately overwhelmed by the extra sunlight. (still learning…)
The Dendrobium Palpabrae put out another spray recently, as well as our Schoenorchis Fragrans, and Gastrochilus Somai. Another orchid, the Nageliella Purpurea, almost bloomed… its been teasing us for years. It produces these skinny shoots from which flowers should emerge, but we’ve never seen any buds until now. We were excited to see a bud develop, but then it refused to open and dried up.
It seems to appreciate the sunnier locale, but I don’t know what else we need to do for it!
