Thanks for the help I know just where to put everything now. I don't
have a greenhouse (yet) but I have the perfect corner in the front living room. Just have to find a place for that pesky chair no one seems to like to sit in. I've got some good orchid mix left from when I re-potted a few things so everything should work out great. Shell "V_coerulea" wrote in message ... Sure, they're a natural. Place them in the high light areas with vandas and you'll have great blossoms in spring before the vandas. They do like a dryish cool winter, so they don't have to stay with the vandas all year. Add some epiphytic gesneriads from Nematanthus, Codonanthes and Aeschanthus, some tillandsias esp Spanish Moss, other bromeliads and you begin to make a habitable jungle insead of a sterile greenhouse. I like to add in the crotons, Streletzias, a few bananas, spathiphyllums, anthuriums, exotic philodendron, etc. Where you are, that should be fairly easy. Work the whole thing together as an artwork. Epis will fit in nicely in hanging baskets. Some are more upright while others are sprawling or pendant. Place them appropriately. If you treat them the same as their neighboring orchids, then pot them in a very light mix. Mine do well in a paph mix without any soil. Gary "Weeble" wrote in message m... Does anyone grow epiphyllums with thier orchids? Any info would be appreciated as I just ordered a couple of plants and several cuttings. I want to put everything together with my orchids if possible Shell |
