Angraecum orchids

[@patsfreund9164]

Ed, Thanks for making this video. I have only one Angraecum in my collection. I believe it is the sesquipedale. I appreciate the information that you share with us. It helps me with my orchid growing.

[@EdsOrchids]

I am so very pleased that the information I try to give can become beneficial to someone. Thankyou.

[@bigboxorchid5770]

A very informative video Ed. Thank you

[@EdsOrchids]

And thank you to you Beatrix for taking a look. Ed

[@ingridchristensen6829]

The one I got (she’s small only 6 leaves), but her roots were completely rotten in the pot. The medium it was in it really didn’t like. I put her in a hanging basket with spag moss but I may see if I can find another that doesn’t have rotten roots and I’ll do what you said and not disturb them. I live in south Florida but surprisingly this is the second one I’ve ever found. Thanks for the great video!

[@EdsOrchids]

It's over 5 years since I published this article so thank you for your comment and for taking aa look.. You do right in putting your plants in a hanging basket.but I would have used just plain large bark or large coco-chips which have been cleaned and the tds lowered to an acceptable level.........I have a video on cleaning video chips about a year ago. Thank you Ingrid....Florida is an ideal place to grow Angraecums.......best of luck with your plant and take care, Ed.

[@denisesorchidparadise1411]

great information, beautiful plant, such a pleasure to watch! Thank you

[@EdsOrchids]

Glad you enjoyed it Denise. If you get as much pleasure from watching my videos as I get from making them..... then it makes me very happy. Thankyou. Ed

[@terryklemesrud758]

This was VERY helpful to me as I have 2 Angraecums....diderii and sesquipedale. You gave me a lot of great information, too. Thanks!!!

[@EdsOrchids]

My pleasure to be of service to you Terry. Best of luck with your two. Ed

[@ResQuetzal]

Really nice specimen sized plants! Even the dideri looks right at home on that mount. That's the only one we share in our collections. Mine appears to be waking up.

[@EdsOrchids]

Hi Resquetzal . It will grow quite quickly once it waes up.... but I keep mine growing all year round. Ed.

[@ResQuetzal]

Eds Orchids Must be growing year round due to the higher humidity in your greenhouse.

[@EdsOrchids]

Including the heat and light I give them year round. Ed

[@MsNipri]

The plants are looking good, Ed! ❤️

[@EdsOrchids]

That was 4 years ago Nita and I have sold quite a few.....but thank you for your nice comment, Ed.

[@MsNipri]

@@EdsOrchids what do you presently use, if you still have the phalaenopsis bellini/violacea, for fertilizer/plant food and how often as well as the quantities! Thanking you in advance. ❤️

[@EdsOrchids]

Good evening Nita and thank you for your comment. I feed just once per week with RainMix and I also give them a little bit extra nitrogen which helps Phalaenopsis to acquire bigger and better blooms.........at a ratio of between 200/250 ppm. Thanks again and have a good and enjoyable Sunday Ed.

[@MsNipri]

@@EdsOrchids thank you

[@sherrywalker4619]

Thanks Ed! Yet another incredible and helpful video! 💖

[@EdsOrchids]

I can always rely on you Sherry for a good comment. Ed.

[@Banana04218]

I really enjoyed watching this video. I hope you have a wonderful week!

[@EdsOrchids]

Thankyou Banana... you have a great week also. Ed.

[@IDEAHC]

🤩I enjoyed your sharing 👍

[@EdsOrchids]

Thankyou for the nice comment flowers world Ed.

[@travelorchidslondon]

Thank you Ed, got myself my first angrecum Lady Lisa

[@EdsOrchids]

Excellent Tantija.... Lady Lisa is a lovely angraecum cross which produces very scented beautiful blooms. Once you have got it growing well never disturb the roots by re-potting.. When the re-potting time arrives leave the plant in its pot and just put it into a larger one. My sesquipedale must have at least three pots in the medium. Take care. Ed.

[@travelorchidslondon]

@@EdsOrchids thank you, Ed

[@patriciasorchids3999]

Lovely happy plants.I would love to try and grow one but unfortunately I don't have the space but the are beautiful. Thanks for sharing

[@EdsOrchids]

Try the Aerangis Patricia they are only small plants easy to grow in the shade and have some beautiful flowers. Ed

[@kathymacomber5115]

I love to learn from you ... thanks!

[@EdsOrchids]

Good evening Kathy and thanyo for the very nice compliment. Ed

[@pal98111]

Very nice. Get a little green craft paint and touch up that burn spot. 👍

[@EdsOrchids]

Don't think that would be acceptable on the showbench pal!!!!!! Ed

[@gardeningandgrowingorchids1688]

Great information Ed.......I have a very small one......Angraecum didieri on a mount......thanks Ed

[@EdsOrchids]

My pleasure Debsa. Ed

[@fionagrace2111]

Amazing plants Ed, very informative and interesting video. I just wondered if you supplement the light in winter in your greenhouse?

[@EdsOrchids]

Hi fiona. Yes I supplement the light in winter mainly for the multifloral paphs which require 14hours of light per day. Ed.

[@denisenoak9401]

Great video! My ses I had to repot even though it has a bud! Put into a large wood basket in lava rock. She's got a drip tray about an inch underneath. Been a week and so far she's good! How can I be so lucky!

[@EdsOrchids]

If you don't try things Denise you never know what you've been missing. Hope things continue to do well for you. Ed

[@marilynmacaday6403]

+Eds Orchids hi

[@EdsOrchids]

Hello Marilyn.and a big Hi to you!! Ed

[@adiposerex5150]

Well, you make it look easy to grow Angraecum. I would love a big one, but I bought a mini didieri.

[@EdsOrchids]

And you'll get a lot of pleasure from the didieri. Ed

[@dianasorchids]

Really large plants 😄! What temperature do they prefer? Beautiful all of them!

[@EdsOrchids]

Ed are warm growing plants but will adapt to your conditions ... they need a temperature difference between day and night of around 8c. Take care, Ed

[@IrinasGarden]

Great information

[@EdsOrchids]

Thankyou Laura. I hope it helps someone. Ed

[@SvetlanasHappyOrchids]

Hi Ed My diderii growing a spike probably since last September.... does it take that long? Noticed yours has spike too

[@EdsOrchids]

My Ang Crestwood always spikes in September and flowers in Jan/Feb. I woulld think that your didierii should have flowered by now.... but you never know with our pets!! .. I don't think mine is in spike it likes to grow instead. Ed

[@SvetlanasHappyOrchids]

Eds Orchids I thought it is a spike... on left side of your plant... That’s how mine looks... then pbbly just a new root...

[@EdsOrchids]

Dead old spike on mine Lana....... hope that doesn't apply to your plant!!! Ed

[@ChannelOrchids]

🤗

[@EdsOrchids]

Thankyou. Ed

[@MartinZanichelli]

[@EdsOrchids]
