I especially like all of the different varieties of containers they use and the moss in top. Though I don't know how the moss would stay fresh and green like that without soil. Today I lucked out....I happened to walk by a new (since last time I was there) display at Lowes with orchid fertilizer. It says to water with fertilizer water once a week and to use the BLOOM BOOSTER one on every fourth week. The bloom booster pkg says that it is endorsed by the American Orchid Society. I also grabbed a pkg of flower clips, of course if you need something you never can find it, so I went ahead and got it now. If I can't keep this one alive now I just might be a lost cause!!! LOL Here are some websites that are listed on the bags of fertilizers. I haven't had the chance to check them out yet. www.sunbulb.com www.better-gro.com www.aos.org Oh, and my baby leaf has grown!!!

Like anything else having to do with plants......I now have more. I got a baby Cattleya. It will be so cool if we get blooms from these plants next spring. Although the Cattleya is still pretty small yet it has put on some new growth since I transplanted it. We will just have to wait and see. Quote \| Reply \| Report
