orchid

I have this orchid, with only very little history on it. I know it's a long shot, but I'm hoping someone here might be able to help ID it, even if only to pin a genus/group on it. It is at least 3 years old, as I have had it for that long. Potted in store-bought orchid substrate, in a 2 inch...

I grow three neotropical blueberries: macleania pentaptera, macleania glabra, and disterigma rimbachii. For the past few months, the m. glabra's leaves have been looking a little chlorotic. New growth looks healthy, flushed with pink, but soon begins to yellow. Otherwise, it grows steadily. Like...

N. albomarginata, N. reinwartdiana These are the seeds I'm attempting to germinate in my new terrarium setup. The only information I can find on them claims that they are both from Borneo (at least), and that they have a massive elevation range, effectively making them both lowland and...

Hey guys I want to get u. Alpina u. Quelchii u. Jitka and u. Nudlinger flair. I want to know what soils you use. I have access to a very limited range of soils unfortunately these are peat, washed river sand, fine orchid bark and vermiculite. There is perlite too but its almost powder fine and...

I just learned that ABG runs an orchid blog. More interestingly (for me) is that this blog sometimes features carnivores! See the aristo photo below: That's from this article on aristos (and other carnivores). They also have an instagram, which features more impressive shots of the CPs. I...

Cypripedium plectrochilum is another small flowering orchid in my collection. I definitely enjoys my cultivation attempts as it doubles annually. This year's flowers. And last years

These have got to be the healthiest size small plants I have ever ordered from any nursery hands down. I FINALLY got one of the N Robcantleyi clones and it's sweeeet! Seriously look how healthy some of this stuff is. Please forgive the pic of them outside, a couple plants got a little cold...

I just scored these from the seed bank. They were shipped today. I have not had a TON of experience with germinating drosera. I have done sessifolia capensis and probably more (I just haven't been growing carnivores long enough to germinate a ton of seeds. I have germinated some either...

Since i grow all my neps indoors, I usually squirt a bit of diluted fertilizer inside the pitchers when I feed with maxsea or growmore orchid fertilizer. I was wondering if anyone has tried dropping a pellet of Osmocote in the pitchers and what were the results? Positive/negative in plant...

Some bromeliads from my uncles yard in Orlando: Some Vandas he had hanging from a palm: A Coreopsis or something similar growing on the side of the road in the Glades: Tillandsias in the Glades: More Glades pics: A Savannah habitat where I found the Pinguicula and...

For some time now I have been struggling for room in my greenhouses so I took stock of the space I could make available and decided to purchase a small 6ft x 4ft ( 1.8m x 1.2m) polycarbonate greenhouse. This is intended to house my Darlingtonia and the odd bryophyte and /or orchid. One tree had...

I love misidentified seeds as much as the next person ((( sarcasm ))). However, the seeds I got from a well known online vendor in the UK that were suppose to be of Sarracenia venosa "Green" ended up being Sarracenia "Not venosa Green". I am offering it here for trade. Below is a list of plants...

I've been thinking about repotting my nepenthes lately, which is in a mixture of sphagnum, peat and orchid bark, and I don't have much clean sand to mix in. Would it be possible to crush up some red landscaping lava rock into bits, and use it as sand? I'll most likely wash the minerals out of...

Hello! I've always been an orchid aficionado, and started growing them in earnest up here in NYC about 8 months ago. The Orchid Board led me here, and I've been buying CPs over the past month or so. Of course I had my odd Venus Flytrap sold in a little plastic box when I was a kid, but like...

Continental US only. Starting Bid $2. We will pay for the shipping. Any questions please feel free to PM me. Both of these were deflasked earlier this year and have been hardening up for a while now in intermediate temps. Bulbophyllum plumatum on the left with Sarcochilus ceciliae on the...

US only. Starting Bid $2. We will pay for the shipping. Any questions please feel free to PM me. I ordered some pots from a very good online orchid retailer last year and he sent me the wrong pots, so he said I should just keep them and sent the correct pots. I told him I would donate them...

Hey. I recently purchased one of these at California Carnivores. I received it bare root. All it's leaves are now dead and withered. I was wondering is this normal? It was broken off of the original plant. The soil I gave it was all New Zealand Sphagnum with the tinniest bit of Orchid...
