North West Neps Posted June 17, 2015 Report Share Posted June 17, 2015 Nice collection Oliver, you have some pretty nice plants there I think your first "n.?" could be ventricosa x talangensis, it's the spitting image of mine. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotcarnivorousplants Posted July 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 Ha, I'm not very good at this, it takes ages because, I never seem to get it to work and I always make them and then they fail, I really need a good hour do do them in, maybe this weekend. :) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maria Posted July 17, 2015 Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 Lovely greenhouse. You can also include pics of your orchids whilst you are at it ! Couldn't help noticing the vanda and you have some cattleyas / laelias? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotcarnivorousplants Posted July 17, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 17, 2015 Sure, will take pictures and as them on, I mainly grow bulbophyllums, but I have just ordered a few cattlaya's so I will hopefully have some soon. Do you grow many orchids? Oliver Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

North West Neps Posted July 21, 2015 Report Share Posted July 21, 2015 Spot on, I made the post in the car and I forgot what it was. :) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I hope you weren't driving at the time ! That's a nice looking pitcher, i like the colouration. I think i have a dud, as it started vining like mad (currently 14 inches high and internodes of about 2 inch) but it refuses to pitcher for me and i dunno why. I've seriously wondered whether i was sent just plain dubia by mistake and hence my conditions are too warm for it. My other ultrahighlanders like diatas, densiflora, and mikei wouldn't pitcher either. The latter two actually died earlier this year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mobile Posted July 21, 2015 Report Share Posted July 21, 2015 Nice collection. Don't think I'd want your winter heating bill though 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maria Posted July 21, 2015 Report Share Posted July 21, 2015 Just amazing, congratulations! I do have some orchids, not many now, since I moved about 7 yrs ago, no longer have the right conditions for them and many died. I do have one bulbophyllum rothschildianum, but after 9 yrs never flowered and not looking good, think may loose it this yr with the current heat wave. My problem is lack of humidity Do have an oncidium like yours and many others, also dendrobiums, cattleyas and laelias. Those do well over here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maria Posted July 21, 2015 Report Share Posted July 21, 2015 (edited) Whilst in the UK, most of my orchids came from burnham nurseries, but now with postage is very expensive. Edited July 21, 2015 by Maria Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scotcarnivorousplants Posted July 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 21, 2015 Yes, mine actually took ages to pitcher too, but now is doing well. What are your temps? Do you plant all of your plants in the large baskets? Maybes the ultra highlanders don't like it? I also grow all of my ultra highlanders away from the stream of heat from the heater and right at the back by the glass. If it wasn't for bubble wrap, I would be in big debt. :) I bubble wrap my greenhouse all year now.

Scotcarnivorousplants Posted July 22, 2015 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2015 My pic of the second glabrata wasn't very good here is another. And a new opening of n.alata not sure if it actually is though one of the taxonomists could help? :) Thanks Oliver Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
