Stupidest thing I've done growing orchids
Is it just me, or have other newbies done really STUPID things to their
plants? My top two: (1) While vacuuming a corner of the sunroom, I took off the sweeper attachment and used just the vacuum tube. When I turned to maneuver the hose, I sucked up an orchid while I was looking the other way. (2) When I bought my first Nobile dendrobium, it bloomed then dropped its leaves. I though that it must be like a phal's bloom spikes and promptly cut off all the canes at their base. Then I read the orchid book for instructions on what to do next... Sometimes, people ask me whether I'm worried that my cats will do harm to the orchids. Well, no. The orchids' biggest danger is probably from me. |
