This week Plant Lovers, a Pleione orchid update! It's been a four year journey of learning about these bulbs...with some success and some utter failures! I made a video last flowering season with professional grower Jane Tonkin - you can see that here: • Pleione ground orchid ... - so I feel I'm better equipped this season! In this video we'll look at the bulbs I flowered last year; how they multiplied - or didn't it! - where they're at in their life cycle and how I'm re-potting them. Then we'll also look at some new bulbs I bought from Jane and I'll pot those up.
If you want to see my other Pleione videos you can here: • PLEIONE GROUND ORCHIDS
The two nurseries I mention where you can find the bulbs for sale in Australia are: www.whitehousenursery.com.au/ and www.tonkinsbulbs.com.au/ and I recently discovered this seller too: www.trainsforthegarden.com.au/...
The two varieties I'm planting in this video are:
Pleione Shantung 'Canberra'
Pleione 'Tongariro'
