Cymbidium Orchid (for Homebird)

Homebird, think the one I sent you is yellow.

Lovely....

Dd, you are welcome to a bit of both, But they do have large strap leaves, not too tidy.

Will pass then.....thanks for the offer though.

And daughter would go nuts, another pot.

It was the yellow you sent me too, its huge now but no sign of flowers I am feeding it with orchid food , anything else I need to do?

Simbad, feeding them is good. I thought yours had a flower stalk developing when I sent it. That is how the spike starts. There is a flower stalk developing on one of mine in a hanging basket. Think it might be another month before the buds open. Usually my yellow is the first, will have to see.

It did look like a flower spike but turned into another big bulby thingy :-)

A pseudobulb, that is a storage organ for another side plant.

Knew there was a name but couldn't for the life of me think what it was :-)

I have just divided my Pink. It was in a hanging tub, took me 1 1/2 hours to get it out. Ended up using one of OH's chisels to get them out. I know it is not really the correct time, but they were never going to flower they were so congested, and I did not want the plastic tub splitting.
Ps if anyone wants a piece, next spring when they have redeveloped some roots, you would be welcome.
