White Phalaenopsis
Just posted pictures on "alt.binaries.pictures.gardens" of a white
Phalaenopsis that I bought some months ago for £1.50 as it had finished flowering. It now has 27 flowers (and a Heath Robinson support to stop it all breaking). -- Regards Bob Hobden |

I usually use news.individual.net for Ngs but have to resort to BT for the binary groups. -- Regards Bob Hobden |

What an outstandingly beautiful plant, Bob. My poor efforts pale me into shame by comparison! -- Sacha http://www.hillhousenursery.com South Devon |

It now has 27 flowers (and a Heath Robinson support to stop it all breaking). Dear me, Bob, I did a search on "Alt.binaries".Got me quite excited. You've got to be broad-minded these days,haven't you. Anyhow I went back to your message and got the correct name this time so all's well.Let's hope the fuzz don't take my puter when I'm asleep.I can see the headline now: "Elderly gardener says he was looking for orchids". They'll never believe me. Those are lovely pictures - your an excellent photographer as well as gardener.You had a bargain they normally go for £12 upwards.If you have the room keep it and you should get another crop next year.When you repot use the special orchid compost or your sunk, also the orchid feed. A joy to behold. Sam |

A joy to behold. Thank you for the compliment Sam, perhaps my misspent youth assisting in a darkroom paid off. :-) Now you have found the alt.binaries.pictures.gardens you will see some wonderful photos from all over the world. As soon as I get any orchid I repot it, with Phals I use live sphagnum moss with bark chippings in a bigger clear plastic pot. I water about once a week now using rainwater with feed every other watering and ensure the pots are flushed through with every watering. The Phals are grown on windowsills and of course I never use a water tray of any sort, the roots hate being wet. The others I have are always in flower to some extent. -- Regards Bob Hobden |
