Growing jewel orchids: Giving them another chance...

[@KP-gw5zv]

Oh Boy you found my passion as well. I so love the Jewel orchids and I would love to get my hands on some. I love their leaves and such. Even though their tiny orchids to me are beautiful. My parents use to have them and now I know what they were. Thank you for linking the video because I want to learn so that I can grow them. You are so amazing orchid grower. I am learning so much from your videos. I agree with using moss I still have not been able to grow in moss no matter how much or how less I use. I can grow in other mixtures. Thank you for sharing. Enjoy them and have a great day.

Mitch, don’t you have enough plants yet?? 😂 happy holidays!

[@westcoastgardenguy1990]

Is there such a thing as “enough plants”?! Lol - especially when there’s always something new and interesting to grow!

[@westcoastgardenguy1990]

Oh and Happy Holidays to you too ❤️

Hi i dont know if you will ever read this but of you do please help me 🙏 i have an anoectochilus and the root has rotten. I cut it off and placed it in a pot with leca and i bit of water at the bottom. Will it root again? 😢🤞 Thank you

I would put it in moist sphagnum moss in a closed container- in my experience that is the best way to rescue a jewel orchid.

Sorry for the late reply! Hope you managed to save it :)

Nice collection of jewels! I haven't dipped my toes into them yet. I know they're grown for the leaves, but I still want one that has nice flowers 😅. Maybe next year I'll get one. Where did you get these from?

[@westcoastgardenguy1990]

Thank you! They’re beautiful and I find the flowers pretty tho not the standard pretty of other orchids ;) I bought some of them online through Facebook marketplace and also Gardenworks carries them every once in a while!
