With proper care they can live indefinately.

Earlier this week I visited Tropic 1 orchids where they had a huge old vanda
that was at least 17 years old. It had about 20 different leads and about
20 spikes of flowers. Unbelievable!

Hello everybody,

Great to find this groep!

I have some Phalenopsis, Dendrobium and Paphiopedilum.

I wonder how old these orchids can become. Someone around who knows that?

Thanks,

ckt
