PHAIUS TANKERVILLEAE - The Nun's Orchid... either way, it's terrestrial... Let's talk about it!
#Phaiustankervilleae #TerrestrialOrchids #SemiHydro
So, the Nun's Orchid is quite the finicky orchid when growing it in the Mediterranean Climate. I have had great success with the mother plant in leca only and a self watering set up, but am in the process of propagating what is left of the second cut that separated from the main piece during the original repotting. The second cut did really well in Semi Hydro, until I went to repot it, when it promptly fell in on itself and only bulbs remained. This video features the mother plant, currently in boom and the 2 propagation methods, with some sign of positive results. Let me know if you grow this beautiful orchid, as a terrestrial, in the ground. If so, where are you located and what are your temperatures? Thank you for watching! I hope you enjoy the video!
