Hi Trunky,
Nice, I like the single ones too. Mine have rust though.. good idea to choose the seeds of the healthiest plants rather than the nicest flowers

That is a magical transformation!

 

Our neighbour will be looking after it while we are away so hopefully it won't be too bad when we come back.

 

one of my clients binned an orchid 3 months ago ....

it was in a sorry state, leaves were starting to brown and there was no stem for flowers so took it home, decided to experiment and potted it up in plagron bat mix (compost made with bat manure, peat etc)

my wife said that it will never grow, and she said that orchids need to be potted with special bark type compostand not a soil type compost

fed it with compost tea, seaweed, fish extract etc and this is what it looks like today

 

That is a very greatful Orchid Dim. You have found just the right cocktail to make it happy. It looks really good now,
well done
