THE ORCHIDS UNDER THE STAIRS

My Orchids Under The Stairs Table.

This is end of March and I do a little run through, of what I have forgotten, (looking over my shoulder now) oh yes three Phalaenopsis hybrids that have reflowered and sevral in bid including my tiny Phalaenopsis.

Going to start feeding them flower feed more often now.

There are several Phalaenopsis in flower with several others still slowly growing spikes. The usual suspects are there like the Vanda coerulea, Vanda denisoniana (now growing better), Trichoglottis pusilla (now growing faster), Bulbuphyllum, Dendrobium vitoriae-reginea (now has cane much taller than the first ones), two Masdevallia and that new Cattleya and tiny Moth Orchid in with a spike.

I think the Cattleya is a Burana Beauty type? One Masdevallia is red and white but not sure what the other one is yet until it flowerrs, was purchased blindly. Cattleyas are sometimes known as Corsage Orchids.

THE FLOWER BUDDING ORCHID TABLE

Table Numero Uno this one.

Again like the last post, sorry. I was uploading a test video to YouTube when I suddenly remembered I had not linked in the latest videos!

I have more on the camera as well as this and the last one and I do have a couple of films to do tomorrow!

Also there should be a few to many new arrivals this year too!! Plus my very unusual Phalaenopsis is in bud as is my miniature Phalaenopsis! These two were the only to Phalaenopsis left I had not managed to get flowering again due to being neglected due to one thing or another!

Well I will be honest down to the government and their public services in all honesty being damned laxy and bloody greedy with it and with delusions of grandeur! In fact that is the topic of my other blog along with corruption, asaintcalledallnights.blogspot.com, and there may now be an end to just one branch of my endeavours in corruption that may well see this blog and many others get a fantastic boost throughout 2014?!

Well that is unless they typically drag their feet or the question is only a cruel wind up question that gets your hopes up and then destroys them?!

But then I stated from day zero on thet blog that despite every avenue I go hurtling down and regardless of what proof and evidence I acquire all services are designed to come to naught?! Ergo I believe this one will come to naught as well!

Well I have been posting for nigh on nineteen months now and thus far I have proven myself to be correct, the idea being that no one would nor could acquire the evidence and proof that I have. Ergo if I cannot reach a happy solution to each one then what chance do the public have? PLus these are run with British taxpayers money too! I just show that they quite obviously do nothing and show it to anyone who is interested, lol.

Would be nice to be proved wrong in a big way for once!

Now my Orchid Table under the stairs has been busy and for a long while too producing spikes and flower buds. This video was from like a week or so ago and currently a couple are in flower here. Plus I have another couple in flower too and will film them tomorrow morning to be posted up on YouTube between tomorrow and the weekend. Fingers crossed something does not come up or my sieve for a brain does not act up as it normally does?!

Now hopefully my Denbrobium victoriae-reginae will start flowering soon and my Trichoglottis pusila will start to grow faster?! I have already seen a new leaf which you may see in the video and if not I will focus on it in the next one wich will probably be tomorrow that I film it?

LOL...

Now I hoe I have the right video...

NEW ARRIVALS OF MASDEVALLIA & CATTLEYA

Wow would you believe it?!

I have pondered about Masdevallias for some time, they are very nice but do not really look like Orchids and I do like that typical Orchid look that you get with Phalaenopsis, Dendrobium, Cymbidium and like that of another new arrival is the Cattleya!

Now I have never had much luck with Cymbidiums, flowering, and Cattleya, keeping them alive for more than a year?!?!

But then I have a completely different set up now to what I had then and just the light rigging with the powerful LED bulbs and the large 1 metre x 0.5 metre humidity tray.

So let us hope that the Cattleya lives and then I may go for a couple of species I like like amythystoglossa and aclandiae I think it was?

Unlike last year this year will see a number of arrivals to my home and these Orchid areas, at long last, lol.

MY EARLY DAYS WITH ORCHIDS

Still have the big reedy Cymbidium, six of the Phalaenopsis and a few others, the rest either were stolen or died because of a selfish twat who need to see professional help.

He lives in Thailand now, lol.
