Pleione Zeus Weinstein

The first time I've managed to get a pleione to flower for a second year

I've done my apprenticeship on Phals, getting reasonable results from a couple of Paphiopedilums & my Dens seem to be putting out a reasonable amount of new canes. So I fancy one of these, but how difficult are they to care for?

Well I can't manage any other orchids at all. I follow cultural advice from a little leaflet I got from Butterfield's orchids. I don't think he's still in business but I could scan the leaflet and email it to you if you PM me with your email address

I think that the best tip I can offer on Phals is to repot as soon as really. Just empty the pot, clean it & repot (I use J.Arthur Bowers orchid mix). Keep the humidity up too.
