Miltonia orchid
In the past several years I have rekindled my passion for orchids which
started in the 80's & then stopped due to building a new home, teenagers, career changes, etc. Now I have cats, phals, & paphs with one miltonia which is giving me a fit! And I am very pleased to have discovered this newsgroup. It is Milt. Virginia Brashear which I purchased several years ago; it has re-bloomed once, about 3 years ago...& nothing since then. It is in an unobstructed southern window about 18-24 inches from the glass. The foliage is medium to light green & I recently re-potted in sphag.moss; it had been in an orchid bark mix which I thought dried out too quickly. I don't water until the moss is almost completely dry, which can be 2 weeks in the winter. I fertilize from spring to fall with orchid food. I love the pansy like blooms & would love to see it flower again. What do I need to change in my culture in order to encourage blooming? Frustrated in northern Illinois... Regards, Debbie |
