White Egret Orchid

Sleepy, I have just received a new T&M catalogue and you get 3 free with every order this year.

And no, after last year's success as much as I would like them, I'm not going to bother!

P.S. I also notice that the bat plant is sold as an established plant this year - I wonder why, mine was likened to a lamb shank when it arrived and did nothing. The replacement they sent did nothing either!

This thread has just reminded me, Debdoos wanted me to ask on here about her orchid. Its a moth orchid. Do you remove the flower stem when flowering has finished or not?

Thats the indoor one em phalanopsis have a look on the indoor plants there is an orchid thread there that will give her lots of info! but the quick answer is Cut the stem down to a node (thats a little bump on the stem) there is no need to take the stem off it will shoot another stem from there! if she has cut the stem off it will shoot anoter from the bottom.
