Cynodes Care
I have two of them, and lucky for me I can get them to bloom. What I
don't have is a lot of information about them and their care. I have one with two old psuedo-bulbs, one with new growth. Will the older one send out new growth, should I separate them or leave them alone? Is there a goo source for info on the more rare species? Thanks. PE |

Cynodes Care
I can't speak about the care of them, but the general rule-of-thumb is to
keep a minimum of two or three old pseudobulbs plus a new growth on each division. -- Ray Barkalow - First Rays Orchids - www.firstrays.com Plants, Supplies, Artwork, Books and Lots of Free Info!

Cynodes Care
It is doubtful that the older ones will send out new growth, but not
impossible. If you can get them to bloom, then you must already have some pretty good care info- good for you! If it's unpotted, don't pot it up until the new roots are 1.5-2 inches long and leaves are unfurling. You could rot out the new growth by giving it too much water too early. If it is potted/outside naturally, then just let it go. Once in a growth phase, water and feed it heavily, and give it plenty of light. There are some pictures and other info here about over wintering and breaking dormancy for ctsms, cycs, and their relatives. http://forums2.gardenweb.com/forums/...502631537.html |
