@@RogersOrchidsGardenandBonsai my collection suffered while I was ill last year and unable to do my normal maintenance for almost three months. Ruth did her best but she knows nothing about orchids and I’ve lost quite a few but most are now stable, at least, and some are reviving. I’ll bear your comment in mind, though. I just thought umpteen routine repotting vids wouldn’t attract anyone.
I had several, some I can't replace. They all dropped their leaves. No idea why, I still have some other species that are doing so so. Maybe try them in dirt next time they are after all dirt orchids
@@YnseSchaap as I said in the video, they’re supposed to be related to Cattleyas but seem to like damper roots and seem happy with less heat and light than you’d expect. Spraying definitely helps the exposed areas of the roots, which can grow from almost anywhere on a cane.
There are so few orchid vids being posted of late, quite honestly, I would post anything you can.
Doing the best I can Roger, I even had to resort to stick insects 🤣
