New Orchid

Beautiful Sarah :)

Lovely surprise to come home to. Well done, Mum!

Simply gorgeous!

Stunning! What a lovely mum you have!!

This is so similar to the one I've just bought, is yours a "Sleeved Orchid" as well?, do you know what care they need, the label on ours didnt say a lot!
Beautiful flower and nice pic Sid!

I have these beauties too...what a great Mom you have! the script I got with mine suggested an east, west, or shaded south window...temps around comfortable room temp during the day and a minimum of 15C (60F) during the night. Let the bark mix get fairly dry before watering...douse the pot well and let drain, don't let it sit with soaking roots! and that's all there is to it... I buy orchid food and feed as directed on the package...simple, right? I predict you will find cause to add to your collection, Sid....they are addictive!

Indy - sorry - I missed your comment somehow in October!

I don't know what a sleeved orchid is. Mine does not appear to have arms and I would therefore think it does not have any need for sleeves or indeed a wrist watch. However, should it take to wearing anything other than a T-shirt, I will be sure to let you know. ;-)

As far as I know it 's a phalaenopsis and you look after it just as Lori says.

Lori - I'm sure you're right - this is unlikely to be the last one! lol

I wonder if it was referring to the packaging???probably thinking about it ,I've not found any reference to a sleeved orchid anywhere!!!! LOL talk about led up the garden path!

Maybe you're supposed to keep it up your sleeve and whip it out a'la Paul Daniels style at parties? lol

Thats a pismobolity !! posmobility.....could be! LOL

Are you taking the pills? ;-)

WHO? moi ???? ;~)))

YES, tu! ;-)

I dont think its the PILLS he's taking! Lol!

Well he does tend to sometimes, lol!
