Marni,
I’ve signed back up! Would you please correct my typo on the title of my Encyclia cordigera photo please. Thank, Bleecker

Hello Marni, I have seeds of the Platanthera ciliaris, unfortunately it is very bad to sow in vitro without the appropriate fungus. Do you know how to germinate them?
thanks and greetings from switzerland peter sends

Good morning Marni. Several days ago I submitted, what I thought would be an interesting image of Vanda coerulea with back-up information.
Since I have had no feedback I must have placed it in the wrong section. I hope that you may be able to rectify my problem.

Marni, I would love to pick you brain about my phalaenopsis orchid and the difference between a terminal spike and a keiki. I cannot seem to figure out the difference or identify what is growing from my plant. Thanks in advance!

Hi Marni. I'm from Brazil and new to this Forum. I loved the photos of Promenaea guttata you post. Congratulations. Most Promenaea species are somehow difficult to find out in Brazil, a paradox, isn't that?!.

Marni: I don't know if I'm ready to deal with plants right out of the flask. Is it very difficult/any special considerations? How many years to bloom? I'm a senior citizen. God I crack myself up.

Marni: You seem to be the go to gal for Lycaste Skinneri Alba. Do you have any of these plants for sale?
I'm losing my mind trying to find it. My wife's from Guatemala and I'll be there 6/21/17 but I'm told you can't buy them. It's illegal as it's the national flower. No wonder my brother in law gave me "alba" cuff links. lol

NNeed some help !now what do I do ? My computer and I are not friendly. I would like to participate but can't seem to find any rules of procedure.

Hi Marni, I just came across an old post... https://www.orchidsforum.com/threads/maxillaria-turkeliae.16314/#post-113991 And wondered if the plant was named after anyone we knew? Kipper

as well as great info in the forum you also come highly recomended.now i know your prices will be competitive but what im unsure of is USA to AUS shipping..may i enquire the cost of a flask of catt;eyas shipped to IPSWICH Aus 4305 please ? cheers god bless Robby j

Marni - Thanks for responding - I grow mostly Denrobiums, cattleyas and laelias plus a mish mash of others. I'm a novice hobiest - have been growing orchids for about 10 years. A member of Conejo Orchid Society. Former member San Diego County Orchid Society. Love orchids an orchid growing folks !!!!! Keep smiling !!! Tom Smith

The bulbs are not mushy but not firm. They are rather soft and more yellowish.
Would you cut it off? I have only one green bulb left.
The new growth has had all melted down.

Bulbo.elisae(pinapple shaped bulbs) has lost all leaves and there is only one bulb look healthy and green (all others are yellow and not firm). Shall I cut off the healthy ONE off from the lest of them?

Marni,Hi !
A favor to ask of you; A friend from Greece is visiting the west coast (on business), and asked me if I know any worthwhile orchid/botanical gardens/retail places to visit.He'll be in SanDiego,S.F.,L.A..
I've never been to the west coast,so I don't know any places other than the S.Diego zoo!
Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

I looked on eBay and your site. You mention on you site that it takes awhile for you to respond. But it it okay to message you there?

Dear Marni ! I have a great wish : could you tell me the exact conditions of growing Maxillaria platypetala, please !
Peruflora is coming to EU and I would like to order it.
My problem with M. sanderiana was, that I watered it in wrong way ( or I did something else wrong ), I killed it after 1year! Very sad ! Now would not like to repeat it !
Thank you in advance ! Best regards
