Hi from Denmark :)

Hi everyone!

Decided to introduce myself I am placed in Denmark (originally Russian), and I have been into orchids not so long, actually... Got my first Phal. 4 years ago, and so it began... Right now I have mostly Phals, but also Oncidium, Odintoglossums, two Miltoniopsis, one Maxillaria variabilis and one Coelogyne fimbriata (both "bonus" orchids from local nursery), a Paphiopedilum, recently bought Brassavola nodosa (was bought as mounted middle size plant, turned out to be two rootless small plants), Epidendrums (bought as Dendrobiums ), Zygopetalum hybrid, Bulbofillum medusae (hopefully... bought 2 plants mounted, unmounted and found out that it is 5 plants, mostly without roots... trying to recover them now), a couple of Sa-nook dendrobiums, one Brassia... and psygmorchis pusilla, which was bought totally by mistake So far lost 3-4 Phals for stem rot (lesson learned: no misting for me, it doesn't work well for me no matter how I try not to hit the stem and do it in the morning), the rest seem to be surviving my novice care so far... Growing space is still to be organized, family is getting tired of orchids in every appropriate spot ))) It is great to have people to talk to about orchids, share falls and achievements, since I am the only one in my environment who is interested...
Well, please welcome me ))

 

yes, it is an interesting hybrid that blossoms on the same spikes for over a year now... flowers fall down, but new branches come out and blossiming begins. Also has a very untypical growing of the spikes, straight from the crown I will take a proper picture and post tomorrow. Was bought in a grocery store by the name: "Coffee orchid" whatever that means Right now I have only picture of the bloom:

 

Here is the crown picture:

 

Thank you I am trying my best with them, but it is still a bit of a struggle... different water, light, temperature regimes make it a challange

 

yep... and it is a fun process
