- This video is about repotting cattleya orchid in the traditional way.
❀✿❀✿ More information below ❀✿❀✿
In this video I repot Blc. George King 'Serendipity' using orchid bark and a clay pot. I talk about potting when older pseuodobulbs are at a lower level than the new, staking and the final test to ensure the cattleya is potted securely enough.

I just got a cattleya on a discounted shelf 1/2 price $13.76 with a beautiful pot. It seemed just a little dried out, so I snatched it up, hoping it wasn’t a mistake… the pot alone was worth the value… I was wondering about the pot and no inner pot in it…wasn’t going to repot it but I guess I should. This is my second cattleya , this new one was potted in this manner…great video, thank you so much❣️ Cindy from Houston, Texas USA
Hi Cindy and welcome to the orchid club. Watch out, the hobby can be addictive!
What an excellent repotting job... and it's going to love it in that holed terracotta, too.
This video was my first use of the big orchid pots and I just love them to bit. They make the plant look so handsome too. Thanks, John.
Thank you for showing this! I'm actually in the need to report TWO of my Catts. Was contemplating on what to do but u hit the nail in the head with this Video so THANK u
Glad to be of service :)
this is really helpful..between danny, roger and you i have decided to smell my own catttleya..was planning to pot my first ever in a pot with holes this weekend..she is ready with her new root growth just right.. have no idea what i'm doing and really needed this.. thank you much..
Good luck with that repotting. I'm sure it will go well!
Thanks for making this re-potting video, very useful especially wiring at the end! Have a great day!
hi!
thank you so,so much for sharing the tips and tricks on potting a cattelya..
thanking you
sheetal..
Thank you for watching.
Very nice repotting! I'm sure the plant will be thankful and grow well. it's so practical that this pot has all those holes, which make staking and holding the plant much easier.
I am so glad to finally have proper orchid pots. Thanks for watching, Andrea.
Rachael, thank you, thank you, thank you! I love your repotting methodology, and the clear instructions and filming. JUst in time, as I confront the same situation with Percivaliana now with second bloom direct from leaf, plus a sheath with shadow. it is climbing outside the pot now but Iwill wait till third bloom appears and proceed exactly like you, as I have many pseudo bulbs at uneven height at bark level. Encouraged, yesterday I bought a huge NOID cattleya, with tons of healthy green roots hanging over its clay pot edge, plus two huge sheaths. only trouble is I am going away for 6 weeks to Trinidad, but thankfully, my garden center agreed to keep and care for my 5 cattleyas, 4 phals in spike, and my flowering vanda! AFter I return I will have to tackly this new one too, while these new roots form. I look forward to seeing your wonderful vids.
I am very glad you liked the video, Judy, and found it useful. That is a great garden centre for agreeing to babysit your orchids and I love the sound of that monster you just bought. I love monster cattleyas. Enjoy Trinidad and happy growing!
Thank you so much for the tips especially about staking and tying up the pseudobulbs. 😁
You are very welcome
Thank you sooo much for this video. I just received cattleya in bud but if came half out of the pot. I had to do emergency repot. It has very little healthy roots but there are two new on very top. When I placed it in a pot correctly it was lopsided. So I used you technics.you video was right on time. Now I hope that bud don't blast. Thank you so much again 😀
Excellent. I hope the cattleya rewards you with magnificent blooms!
Thanks, Rachel, very good video... I didn't know about wiring cattleyas into their new pots, learned something new! Those new holey clay pots certainly lend themselves to just that. 🌱
Yes, wiring is much handier for me than messing around with homemade orchid clips. Thanks for watching.
Great video! Just the educational information I needed to correct my methods. My Catleyas and I ThankYou.
Thank you
thank you Rachael for such useful info, I am sure that I will be using all these great tips, especially the one to pull the leaning pseudobulbs into a mooe upright position!
I am glad it was useful :)
Very interesting method on lifting the plant with the steak and the strings, I will have to remember that. Thank you for the video Rachel.
Thank you, Corina.
Nice job! Your cattleyas are all so beautifully grown, a sight for sore eyes!
Thank you.
Excellent tutorial. Thanks
Glad it was helpful!
What a beautiful repot! Going to reward you some besutiful flowers!
Thanks, Pam. Oh, I do hope so about the blooms. They are a gorgeous soft pink.
A very informative video and your cattleya looks great in its new pot
Thanks, Tina.
Thanks for this wonderful video! I also have a George King ‘Serendipity’--it’s my favorite! Your tip with the wire to hold it down is genius! I will try this next time I repot.
Thanks for watching. I must tell you though that my King George is currently in fat bud so look out for a video when it opens, any day soon.
Gardening at Douentza --so is mine! Any day now! 🎉
Hey Rachel, I just repotted a Cattleya last week with a root ball like yours and almost had to take a Xanax halfway through! I let it soak for hours and hours, and being that I was transferring it to semi-hydro, I had to remove ALL the media. Long story short, it took me 2 hours using a wooden bamboo skewer to poke out all the old media, and when it was all said and done, I STILL ended up breaking off all the new roots in the process. Then I took the Xanax.😂🤣 thanks for sharing, Rachel ;)
Oh dear. Poor John. You really can't be in a rush when repotting an orchid, the little angels. Your epic repotting reminds me of the following video that Zane made some time ago. It is soooo funny. Take a look if you don't know it...
ua-cam.com/video/mMItFLoVnAE/v-deo.html
Gardening at Douentza damn! Alright, now I don't feel so bad, that was a nightmare!! 😂 thanks Rachel ;)
Very informative video. I'm still new to Orchids so I'll be sure to save this video in a playlist for later use. He looks lovely in his new pot. I hope to get a Cattleya this year. I've only ever grow Phalaenopsis and Dendrobium. Thanks for sharing! Many blessings! -Jason
Oh, you have to try a cattleya. Cattleyas are my favourite orchids but you do need good light. Thanks for watching.
such a FANTASTIC re potting video :-) I really enjoyed it watching it and the beautiful clay holed pot is so WONDERFUL :-) you have done an INCREDIBLE repotting :-) thanks a million for sharing Rachel and sending you an abundance of love and heaps of happiness and Plant Power from Waterford to Wexford and have a MAGNIFICENT Tuesday ahead XXXXX
Thanks for watching, Lyn, and happy Tuesday. xx
Thanks for this repotting video. Now I understand why my cattleyas require such a long recovering time after I reported them. I even lost two after repotting.
The correct time of year is important for potting, Audrey. The usual advice with cattleyas is to wait until the plant starts into growth in spring before repotting. This is because it is not always possible to see the roots (as in my video) so you need to anticipate the root length by the extent of the new pseudobulb growth. Or repot when the new growth starts, knowing that the roots will soon follow. And pack it firmly in the pot! Good luck!
The plastic coated wire is an excellent idea. Think I will try it to stabilize my seedlings which sometimes topple out of their small pots.👍
Just be careful with delicate stems as a cattleya is much more robust than seedlings. Good luck!
wow that was beautiful work! I have a huge pot of orchards someone left me and this definitely will come in hand for the re-potting. 🌱😄
Well lucky you and good luck!
George King 'Serendipity' is absolutely beautiful. Have a look at Dinard 'Blue Heaven' for another glorious flower in spectacular colours. I use coarse chunks of hard polystyrene at the back of the plant. (not the soft, spongy type) I then have a space of non absorbent medium around the backbulbs. Bark only around the actively growing portion. Plant is then upright & rotting is far less of a threat. Your videos are a pleasure to watch. Excellent advice. Are you writing a book on orchids indoors? Where do you get those lovely orchid pots?
Thanks for watching and sharing, Edward. I buy my orchid pots in Johnstown Garden Centre in Naas (if you are in Ireland). I have written a book about my gardening journey in general. Perhaps you will check it out.

What an excellent video on repotting Catts. Much appreciated. One thing though :- I am asking you to reconsider how you pronounce the generic name Cattleya which as you will know, was thought up by John Lindley R.H.S. to honour my ancestor William Cattley who first grew C Libiata in the early 1800's. My point here is that the name is derived from his which was then and still is, pronounced Cat-lee. Lindley "Latinised" it by adding an a at the end thus making it Cat-lee-a. You however are using the often heard American version Cat-laay-a which has now been corrected by the American Orchid Society to the Cat-lee-a. Regards Tim Cattley
as you can see I've seen your vid twice just to make,sure I remember everything!
Very good :)
I wish I could find clay pots with holes near the top. 😕 I have to use rhizome clips. I love the way you pot your cattleyas and they're always so tidy, I don't have the patience to stake mine up like that.
Well, I've had the same problem as you until now. It is only recently that I've found a stockist for the proper orchid pots. And I've never found rhizome clips for sale so used to fashion my own out of old coat hangars. An orchid growers gotta do what an orchid growers gotta do. Thanks for watching.
Wow I haven't seen anyone use this plastic wire system before. I love it! Is it just like plastic coated floral wire? I'm definitely going to try this. Love your staking, really makes the plant look its best! :)
Wow, Isis. How wonderful to hear from you again after so long.
Yes, I think the wire is floral wire (I don't flower arrange so I'm not sure). It is very handy but you have to make sure not to stretch it across soft growth, like the new roots in the video, as it can cut into them.
Thanks for watching.

Yay - 'kitchen time' !!! I hope some of mine have a good set of new roots like yours when they move into their new 'holey clay pots'. (BTW - I'm pretty sure I saw an 'eye' near the back of the plant - maybe now it can 'see the light', it may form a new growth from the older part?)
I just love these new pots. I wish we had bigger too.
Unfortunately that eye you saw is very blackened so I think it has perished from being buried. But so it goes. Good luck with your potting, Roger!
Thanks for tip how good packed should be bark.Didn't know that.😊
Really? Yes, important for cattleyas :)
I have only 2 of them,one from you and an other is miniature.Yours is planted propery,must check mini..
nice video
Thanks
thanks lot of u
Welcome
My CG roebleing Sentinal arrived growing in rocks....old pots tucked into ever larger ones...the rocks do not need replacing...Seems a convenient way to grow LC
Jennifer S... what is LC?
LC is labeling cattleya
I hesitate to plant my orchids into clay pots, because I suggest the roots clinging to the clay structure too much.
Now, that 3 years passed by: What is your experience with getting it out if the pot? How did you detach the roots from the pot?
Good morning. I have grown Cattleya orchids in clay pots for well over 10 years. Take a look at my repotting playlist if you want to see how I report them...

Nice video. Greeting from Florida USA. Has your George K bloomed for you? I’ve heard it needs a lot more light than other cattleyas. I’m waiting for my Pot. Fire Island, Blc Hawaiian Island Bride & Pot Hawaii Prominence right now, all in bud.
Greetings from Ireland to Florida. Yes, my George King did flower. There's a video somewhere to show it. Good luck with your cattleyas!
hi,
have added to my collection but don't know the following acronyms.
Can you help?
Dtps, Mtssa & Mtdm.
It must be something simple but I not quite there yet.
I keep records on my computer when I get plants in case labels get lost.
Something should jog my memory.
Lovely potting job on the cat.
And as usual, a terrifically informative video.
Doritaenopsis, Miltassia and the last one seems to be miltonidium.
Happy growing, Glenda.
Would you do that one by one if you have a 100 pots of catleya to repots
I don't know any other way to do it efficiently
Hi Rachael how are you.
You wouldn't believe what happened!After update of my phone i didn't get any notification from you're channel and I nearly lost my life and then I couldn't find You're Chanel.
But anyway very professional repotting.Have a nice day.And Happy Valentine's Day.Jelena.
Haha. So funny I feel deeply honoured that my channel means so much to you, Jelena :)
That is a situation where a strong stream of water from the water hose, directly down into the middle of the plant, from the top, would do a lot of good and save a lot of time..
It would be very bad for my kitchen though 😂
@GardeningatDouentza ɓut you could do it outside in the garden! Love your videos...thank you for sharing and teaching.
Only in high summer. Any other time the cold water from the hose would shock the plant, not to mention the surrounding temperatures. I only use warm water on my or bids in winter. I bet you live somewhere sunny 😎 Thanks for your feedback on my videos 😊
Great work there Rachel and very timely as I have to repot my very favourite cattleya soon. Where did you get the wire from? Also, I have 2 very long luscious roots growing outside the existing pot and they have come from the oldest pseudobulbs which are right up against the pot and the new growth from that is about 3 inches tall. Is it ok to bury the new air roots in the media? I kind of don't have a choice...I'm quite nervous of breaking the new growth so how big should I let it get before repotting do you think? 😥
Hi Fiona. The wire I used in this video can be bought in DIY shops in Ireland, in the garden section. It may also be used for flower arranging so you could check out those stockists too.
Personally, when I repot cattleyas I bury and roots that have escaped over the side. I wouldn't for a phal but do for cattleya. I am sure you will find others who disagree with this.
As for repotting once new growth is spotted, the sooner the better really. As it is now quite early in the year you can wait but you don't want the new roots to progress into the bark before repotting so keep an eye on it.
Good luck!
Thank you I enjoyed your video on the repotting of your Cattleyas , I just purchased a new one when I received it the large pseudo bulbs were very wrinkled the growth of leaves are ok the roots beautiful it’s very light Green I’ve hydrated the plant it’s still very wrinkled so do you think 🤔 I need to leave it be until it gets use to new environment . I am not real familiar with the Cattleyas I’m learning have more experience with Phals ,Cymbidium, oncidium, dendrobiums , vandas but am also learning something new every day about my environment and adapting the care to Southwest Louisiana. Humid semi tropical. Thank s again Happy growing from Olivia!
Hello Olivia. It sounds like you have a healthy ccattleya - good roots and pale green leaves. Usually when pseudobulbs are wrinkled it is a sign of underwatering or bad roots (that can't absorb water). A few cattleyas will have a greater tendency to wrinkle than others. I would say to give it a chance to acclimatise, taking careful care of watering as you do so. Good luck 😊
Gardening at Douentza Thanks you have a beautiful day!
thank you for video s very helpful where can you purchase those holy pots in Ireland would love two get some
I bought the pots in Johnstown Garden Centre in Naas. They still had them last time I checked and I think they were €2.99 each
Beautiful repotting job! Will the strings and wire “hurt” the plant/pseudobulbs? Cheers Lee
Thank you. Make sure to use coated wire so that it will not cut in to your cattleya pseudobulbs and damage them. Happy growing.
Gardening at Douentza thanks a lot for answering !
@@lequach75 👍
Where did you get the terracotta pot with holes?
Johnstown Garden centre.
Una manera muy distinta a nuestra manera de sembrar
Would packing the pot tight also apply to seedlings?
I think less so with seedlings!
Hi Rachael :) It is a very useful video. if a small leaf of phalaenopsis its yellowed, should repotting? I will photograph roots, and I will send on twitter. Thank you.
Good morning, Gicu.
Phalaenopsis like to be tight in their pot so unless the medium is breaking down, I would not repot. The old leaves on plants will regularly die off and that is not something to worry about. But do show me a photo!
I've been looking for wire like that for YEARS. Stuff is either too thin like the florist wire or too thick. Can you please tell me the brand name and the..like if there are different sizes? The model number etc?
Hi there. I'm sorry but I don't have the packaging any more. Are you in Ireland? I bought it in Woodie's if you are.
@@GardeningatDouentza No, I am in the USA. All we have like that is florist wire which is really thin and the thicker wire isn't workable. Then we have workable foam coated stuff that is super fat due to the massive rubber coating and it is BRIGHT green, but that stuff you have there looks like it would be perfect both for inflors and to replace the ugly twist ties we have.
That's rough
How often do you water it?
In my climate, about once a week.
Thanks again 😅🤣
No problem 😊
