Repotting the phals


Repotting the phals (Phalaenopsis)

They were getting too tall for the pots and falling over at the least touch so I decided to take the bull by the hornes last night and shorten the roots and repot them into new orchid compost. I hope they survive the onslaught....time will tell. Oh! Yes, I managed to separate a young one from the parent plant too. I do hope I haven't killed them all, I was a bit drastic with the root pruning......

I'm sure they'll be fine HB just remember to give them 'growth' food when you water them and they will reward you in time.
