I love your Orchids in Bloom videos. Thanks for sharing!

[PegsGarden]

I just bought my first orchids a few weeks ago and your channel has helped me so much!!! I live in West Central Florida and they are loving my shaded back porch with all the humidity and warm temps we have, I have watched so many of your videos and learning as much as I can.💕

I found a source saying that "Sedirea japonica live relatively shortly, usually blooming for no more than 4-5 seasons. It seems more likely that these plants need a cold period to enter the sleep phase giving the necessary rest. When the winter temperatures are too high, the plants just keep growing and eventually die of exhaustion. In winter, the plants need less water and they should dry well between watering, especially when they are grown in cold conditions. They will be less affected by exposure to low temperatures when dry. Fertilization should be eliminated until new growths appear and more watering begins in the spring."

Those polychilos and novelty hybrids of yours are so beautiful, I hope someday I get mine as well. ❤❤

Most awaited video for me every month
Thank you Danny for sharing your beautiful orchids ❤

[sarahquinn]

I'm so thrilled to have not 1 but 2 flower spikes growing on my first orchid I bought, as a newbie last year I've had not one clue about orchids but with your help I've nursed and repotted and laughed with joy cried with dissapointment but yes I am succeeding, could not have done it with out you thank !you thank you !thank you !

[heatherrohde]

Sarchocilas centers look like little faces❤

[RobertaOrchid]

Love the Renanthera monachica, so pretty!

[mmsilva]

Love your blooms. My Mini Mark aborted several flower spikes and yellowed leaves, then finally put out a spike. Roots look great so no idea what was wrong.

[csandberg]

I would love to hear you talk about how deep to plant orchids. I always second guess myself and either add or to the top or take away some. Thanks!

[wandashaw]

Hi Danny, all of your blooms are beautiful!! My favorite is the Seidera Japonica, my absolute favorite!! I now have three and they are my very special girls in my collection. You spoke about the mini mark, Mr. Mark does not like my face, he didn't like my face on two separate occasions. No more Mr. Mini Mark for me. lol

[siriusblack]

Me and a friend had the same issue with our Mini-Marks this year. Mine aborted 2 spikes and produces another one currently. Let’s see how it goes with this one. Never had this issue with any other of my phalaenopsis. 😢

The Yellow mini sophrocattleya is just amazing! 😍 Thank you

[mariabelleci]

I'm so happy I found your channel! I can literally just listen and watch your orchid videos forever 😍

I bought my first Phals about a week ago and every morning that I open my eyes and see them I go "Yay! They are still alive!" I am absolutely in love with them.

I have previously just had succulents indoors, since in Finland the air gets really dry during winters, but the problem has been that the lack of sunlight makes it difficult to keep succulents alive or you can see that their growth gets warped because of it. This spring I threw most of them out.

We have one table in a small apartment next to west window. The four Phals pretty much take up all the space already (I think the Phals were all minis, so I'm praying they won't take over the whole table). I am not that worried about the sun burning the leaves, but if I see damage I'll adjust the blinds or move them away from the window. In winter I'm 99% sure that they actually need to be as close to the window as possible. Because of the cold we have mostly double layered windows, and the heat and light from the sun are minimal in winter too.

I have just been trying to figure out a plant that could thrive in our apartment. After studying Phals a lot, I do think they could do better than succulents. Also the flowers can be an added bonus if I manage to get some 😅

One of the orchids already had yellowing buds when we brought it home. I think one of the flower spikes might be slightly damage. I also changed pots for all of them, I didn't know at the time that that was a no-no, and I was worried of how much they abuse orchids in flowershops. Two of them had all of their aerial roots cut off 😭

But if the flowers go, I won't be too sad about it. The crown and the leaves remind me about succulents anyway, so as long as they look healthy, I am going to be very happy with them. I'm also kind of itching to do a proper repotting with them. It's soon going to be June anyway, so I will probably have to cut the flowers off actually 😅

Renanthera monachica is one of my favourite orchids ever! It’s so beautiful – I finally bought one recently after having seen yours for years and wanting it 😂 I would loooove to see that one on a mug.

[eleganceevolved]

Can you do a video about how to keep these Mother’s Day orchids alive and blooming?!❤❤

[flybynyt]

Purchased my first tetrapsis at at show last month. So pretty!

[irina]

aaaaw, my Renanthera Monahica is also blooming, for the very first time and it’s so pretty. I got it thanks to your channel!

[nadiaandrusca]

Hi Danny! I have the same problem with my Mini Mark the last two years. Only vegetative growth and aborted flower spikes. I don't know why but I don't lose my hope. Un Paste fericit!

[mayastoyanova]

Hey, Danny, thank you for mentioning your observations with phal. Orchid World. The leaves of my Orchid World are also slightly yellowing towards the crown. I thought I was overwatering her (and I gave a lot a water because she has a big root system). I’ll definitely move her somewhere more shady. You’re not the only one – all of my previous phal. Mini Mark (3 of them) have kept only the top leaf, they simply refuse to grow and survive (currently I’m trying for the fourth time).
I gave up my vandopsis Orange Sorbet because I grew tired of him waiting for a single leaf (not expecting flowers at all); two other friends are also having trouble growing other vandopsis orchids vegetatively (not even hoping for a flower spike). So I suspect vandopsis orchids are not very easy to grow and they test your patience to the max.
