Hiya Re: Attention: ORCHID GROWERS!

thanks for posting the pic patti...for those of you growing phals...heres a misconception..at least for the northern hemisphere...it is not the lower temps that initiate blooming as first thought....apparently,according to the international phal society...it is the shortening of days..and lenghtening of night.....Most of my phals have two infloresences on them,I think because of regular fert routine,especially during the leave growth stage.....I have about 80 phals,most of which I created...its a little like playing god....fun ...fun!
