Renenthera storiei
This one has gone through several near death experiences..... i tried tying it to palm tree , plumeria, grow in charcoal etc finally it seems happy growing from a chopsticks holder with a mix of charcoal and coco husks. This is a yellow form which i got from Moi Hwa Nursery.
Anselia africana
I like this orchid but not its messy roots. This is one of 2 seedlimgs bought from a local nursery. Growing nicely and i have not paid much attention to it... also have the alba version but i think the non alba flowers are much nicer. Can't wait for it to start blooming.
Beccarii added new leaf
The beccarii grew new leaves .... leaves getting larger. A good sign that the growing conditions is suitable. I will be adding more chopped coconut husks and spaghnum moss this one like a very wet growing media.
Weeding time
The ferns and my orchids are such good buddies, i have to spend a morning every few weeks to weed out the random growing ferns... they usually add up to half a pail.
