June Update : Houseplants, Orchids, Blooms, Spikes // Operation Home Jungle!

Sorry it's been a while! So thought I'd just post an update on my Landing Growspace. Lots of spikes and overall all the plants are healthy and doing well. A tour of my newer & younger houseplants I keep in this growspace, as it's nice and warm up there.
Rot on my Cycnodes Wine Delight :(. #OrchieDee

All your babies are looking happy and healthy. The landing is bright and very cheerful. I understand your joy in just sitting and savoring life in that place. Stay well and keep smiling.

[@PIAMUSA]

lots of collections. lovely

[@crystalhonda5976]

Your plants are beautiful!

[@FelineJungle]

Obsessed with your collection of orchids!! So much eye candy. Glad to meet another plant lover!

[@bonniesuekimball7550]

Good job! Everything is looking so nice 👍😁

[@myIsabella53]

Enjoyed seeing your spiking and blooming orchids very much. Those twinkles really tugged at my heart! Everything looks so healthy and vigorous. The jungle is coming along nicely.

[@OrchieDee]

sej omg the twinkle are sooo cute and sweet. I wish my biggest twinkle also joined the party!

[@myIsabella53]

@@OrchieDee I am seriously going to look into getting a twinkle. Hmmm what color now? See what you're doing to me 😂

[@OrchieDee]

sej you need to get two different colors... you know... for contrast 😂

[@Jacksprat265]

I love that you have indoors as well... I’ve recently renewed my passion for indoors because my baby orchids aren’t blooming lol

[@noahokin5581]

!!!!! The antelope orchid!!!!

[@KP-gw5zv]

The area where you have your house plants and orchids. I think I would have agree with you about by sitting there you would be like there is fresh air. Like all your blooms and looking forward to see those in spike in bloom. The NoID Dendrobium that looks like real dark purple is called Black Thailand or Velvet Melody. I have one and it is in the process of growing three canes. Looking forward to seeing it in bloom in late fall here in Canada. So it should grow as tall or taller then the 2 canes the old flower spikes from last fall. Enjoyed the video and have a great day.

[@OrchieDee]

Kim Paquette yes it looks like the velvet melody I think! Lol ... definitely an apt name since I’ve harmed on about its velvet texture so many times!! Thanks 😊

[@orchidelirium9102]

Uh oh watch out for the leg police 🤣🤣🤣

[@OrchieDee]

😂😂😂. Didn’t even shave 🤭

[@orchidelirium9102]

Orchie Dee 😱🤦🏻‍♀️🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@NinjaOrchids]

Got coffee! Need to sit down and enjoy this video! I’m fighting humidity lows of 36%, strong hot wind.... and feel like a plucked chicken! The timing of this upload is perfect! Thank you 🌸 my samurai is no where near the size of your’s! Gorgeous!!

[@OrchieDee]

Ninja_Orchids I’ve been off the grid a bit too so need to catch up on all the vids!

[@orchidsbythelake]

It’s funny... it took me awhile to switch my watering behavior to orchids... then after I got used to it, I couldn’t take care of regular indoor plants! Almost killed lots of regular plants... they are all good now though.

[@OrchieDee]

Yes, and honestly, you mostly learn from mistakes! So you need to some plants to take the fall so you can really learn to read when they are starting to decline.

[@tropicalplantsfinland]

Those Alocasias are some fuzzy ones. I think Kaylee Ellen (KZbin channel) said they are 9 miles plants. You get one shot with their leaves, when they're growing a new one. (Slacking behind with watering and boom.) I just bought a stingray, was pondering between zebrina and that one. It had new leaf coming during transport and it stayed distorted and I guess it will stay that way. The new one is coming out and I'm hoping it will fare better.

[@OrchieDee]

Tropical Plants Finland yesss, explained it beautifully. How had I not seen this channel!! Now I’ll be singing lose yourself all day. 🎶 you only get one shot, do not miss your chance to grow 🎶

[@OrchieDee]

Wait... have you just introduced me to a rare plant channel 🤨😳.

[@tropicalplantsfinland]

@@OrchieDee Not really and then again yes. I started following her when she was not into any uncommon plants or had her plant shop. :) she used to bought stuff from IKEA back in the days. She has the older video about Alocasias, which I was referring to. (To be honest I forgot the whole rare plants as I have been following her from the early days of her channel).

[@taraldstein7165]

I love your Alocasias and flowering Dendrobiums!

[@barbaradoyle9388]

I love houseplants also. Great seeing them.

[@EdsOrchids]

Good video..I really enjoyed watching .....thank you. Ed.

[@OrchieDee]

Thanks Ed!

[@wandashaw3551]

Loved seeing your houseplant collection! I collect them, too, along with my orchids! 😍

[@OrchieDee]

Wanda Shaw yay!! I’m thinking of a video comparing orchids vs other houseplants. I feel like there’s an unnecessary divide! It’s like poor orchids are outcast from the houseplant world

[@wandashaw3551]

Hi Orchie Dee, I love that idea. When I look around on You Tube, I seem to see more houseplant channels than Orchids, not knocking the houseplant channels at all, I love them, too but ORCHIDS are my FAVORITE!!! Looking forward to what you put together!! Happy Growing. :)

[@michaelmccarthy4077]

What the heck happened to your spectabile? Wasn't it like five times that size?

[@OrchieDee]

Michael McCarthy 😬😬 .. think it went downhill last winter. I kept it outside for a chill and it disowned me. It’s been sitting as two sticks since last spring 🙄

[@michaelmccarthy4077]

How high are your Mars Hydro lights over your Phrags? Now that I've got quite a lot of them, I ordered a Mars light since I keep them inside but I don't know how far away from the light they should be when it comes.

[@OrchieDee]

What light did you get Michael? The SP250 is adjustable. But I find the phrags (most of them) can tolerate super high light. I’ve never had any burn. The only thing they really hate is drying out! Mostly I keep them on the top shelf, but I repotted some last month and put them on the bottom shelf to reduce stress.

[@michaelmccarthy4077]

@@OrchieDee I got the TS 600. I considered the SP150 but I thought it would be a bit too bright. The PAR values they had listed were super high and I was afraid of burning them.

[@helenbenjafield7351]

Your no I D dendrobium at the end of the video looks like a Sa-Nook"Thailand Black".

[@OrchieDee]

Helen Benjafield thanks lovely! I think another commenter mentioned ‘velvet melody’ which I think is correct. The black Thailand is stunning though!!

[@ariainlondon]

There is some confusion to the naming, but this is from the creator of this plant: www.sa-nook.nl/en/assortment

[@helenbenjafield7351]

@@ariainlondon thank you for the link!I have Thailand Black which is an absolutely stunningly deep velvety maroon,however,it's not always possible to photograph the colour accurately,so I wasn't sure,but the centre of the flower swayed me in that direction.

[@stowey640]

Very nice blooms Dee, Also been collecting some house plants as well, one of the most trending plants around at the moment are the Variegated Monstera or the Thai Constellation they look great but very very expensive. Lucky we all love Orchids.

[@OrchieDee]

Yes. The Thai constellation is quite a bit cheaper than it used to be. I got one recently actually (it was $195, not cheap but was a good size). Other variegated monsteras and philodendron are ridiculously expensive. I can’t believe how much people will pay for an unrooted cutting! I’m hoping to build on rarer one more by swapping in the long run. Just need a couple of gems and go from there!

[@dancealiasable]

Quick question do you know if Australian dendrobium respike on old canes like latouria dendrobium?

[@OrchieDee]

Yes, most do. Dendrobiums in general are fairly good at spiking from old canes one they are fairly mature

[@dancealiasable]

@@OrchieDee okay thanks I got a few so was wondering if they do very excited to see their first bloom. So when the flower dies do I cut the spike right down to the bottom?

[@OrchieDee]

Yes, the spike will go brown and you can just cut it off :)
