Has anyone grown Eulophia's?
Anyone have any growing tips? Mine has been stalled for a few
months now. I do not even show any new root development. (I have it in a clear pot) Thanks in advance! Crystal -- Ask yourself if you are happy and you cease to be so. |

Crystal
I have a few pots of alta's that I saved from the bulldozers down here in Florida. They go dormant once they put up the flower spike in the fall, lose their leaves and remain leafless and dormant until spring when the rains start the cycle again.

Thank you! I was just a little nervous because the leaves just
started turning yellow. I would have expected this sooner. The bulbs still look healthy. Do you have a guestimate of when these should start breaking dormancy?

Crystal,
If they are alta's they will start to grow again in March/April. They bloom in Sept through October. They grow wild along the roads here in central Florida in the ditches once the rains start again. They like it really wet. When I extracted the plants I have I was digging in standing water, looking for the bulbs, so there is no such thing as too much water for these :) Dave "femalestrom" wrote: Thank you!
