Hello everyone.
I pop in this time every year to gush over everyones blooms.
DD keeps a few paths and a cymbideum she has had for ages.
I have known this cymbid. orchid for 4 years and was blown away the first year it put out a bloom spike.The plant resides in my part of the house for the winter and in the garden the rest of the year.
I launched a campaighn to see more than one spike and have been disapointed for the last 3 years.
Finally there are 2 bloom spikes I am stoaked. This plant gets no fert,only water that summer sends. What a reward.I will photo when its blooming.
I admire everyones skill with these plants and count myself lucky to get a reward for the abuseours gets here.
The paths do fine under DD's care.
