WHAT is in the pot? Learning about Bletilla striata together #CareCollab

#Bletillastriata #Chinesegroundorchid #Terrestrialorchids
THIS, IS SUPER INTERESTING! BUT... as it was a gift from Fernanda Nascimento Orchids & Succulents, also a little nerve wracking because I do not want to do wrong by this orchid. In this video, I take you on the road to discovering #Bletillastriata together with me, looking at the roots, assessing it's needs based on what it came in in the nursery can, and using a little intuition regarding how I can make it thrive in my Southern Spanish climate using #akadama . If you are new to this #orchid, like me, then you have clicked on the right video, because... we will find out together! 👍🏼
