Bird netting
The birds are eating my flower buds ..... a recent problem. Over the years birds have been nesting among the orchids but they have never caused any problems but recently a family of birds seem to find the orchid buds and new tender spikes yummy. Luckily these are not from any new hybrids or first blooms. I did some research on garden and bird nettings and orderd some. The good quality ones avalable locally are quite pricy.They should be shipped over in a couple of weeks. Settled for 6 ply nylon netting with 3cm mesh size, these should be good enough to keep small birds out. Significantly cheaper when ordered directly from china vendors online.
