[@OrchidsByBryan]

Thank you so much!!

[@zoltanistvanmerai5547]

Hi! You have lot's of beautiful orchids. I very like Leptotes, Restrepias and small size Cattleyas. Your orchids have very nice flowers. Congrats.

[@OrchidsByBryan]

Thank you so much 😃 I love the variety of blooms this month! It’s always exciting to have a colorful grow tent! :)

[@newmanmansell760]

Hi Bryan☺️🙌Your orchids are in great health🥰👏I don't often see that quality of culture. I absolutely love the Masdevallias💖and the restrepias are so unique and interesting to study. I love your fragrant phalaenopsis too. I grow native Japanese orchids here in Japan. This year I'm trying Cypripedium japonicum.

[@OrchidsByBryan]

Thank you so much for the kind words! The plants definitely seem happy and healthy so far! ;) that’s very cool that you grow native Japanese orchids! There are several sophronitis that were grown and hybridized in Japan that I would love to add to my collection one day!

[@LauraStansfield-tw7xb]

Soo beautiful!! The Rlc. Stippled Sunset. Wonder why it's so different looking.

[@OrchidsByBryan]

I love that one too! It’s such a unique hybrid! I believe it is a new remake of the hybrid. But many hybrids can look very different from each other from plant to plant.

[@karengeorge5959]

Hi Bryan. Your orchids are gorgeous! So many blooms. Love the Tamiami orchids you brought home. I am going to the orchid show at Hershey this weekend. ❤

[@OrchidsByBryan]

Thank you, Karen!! It was an amazing show! I was thinking about going to the show in Hershey but will have to miss this one unfortunately!! I hope you are able to pick up some beautiful plants!

[@karengeorge5959]

Hi Bryan I am sure I will be finding lots of orchids. Paphs and Phrags. Next show is SEPOS

[@tropicalplantsfinland]

Oh, congratulation on the P. mariae! It’s just amazing species and when it matures, the blooming is just spectacular. Just keep it on top shelf, as it has tendency blooming facing down. I have primary cross with tetraspis C1 and mine has taken after the mariae quite clearly.

[@OrchidsByBryan]

Thank you! It was a wonderful pick up for sure! I’m glad to have it in the collection! I’m hoping to grow it to be a beautiful specimen! :)

[@LauraStansfield-tw7xb]

Love Phal. mariae! I love all the prinary hybrids with this species. Just a tip. Check out any primarys with that one!!

[@OrchidsByBryan]

Yes!! They are so unique and beautiful! I’ve come to really love the Phal. Mariae too! The flowers are wonderful and very different!

[@susanamarron5723]

You have a really beautiful collection! I wouldn't know which one I like best! I love the Lepanthes. I have them in the terrarium, the Lepanthes Gargoyla and the Lepanthes telipogoniflora that accept more heat than the rest of the Lepanthes and I can have them in the terrarium that has a temperature of 19-22 ° C. Greetings from Spain!

[@OrchidsByBryan]

Thank you so much! The lepanthes are some of my favorites too!! They are so beautiful!! :) and the flowers are great!

[@LauraStansfield-tw7xb]

I love diamond orchids!!!! Is the Shelly Huynh a alaori hybrid??

[@OrchidsByBryan]

Yes, it is! A beautiful and reliable bloomer!

[@LauraStansfield-tw7xb]

In your cool growing tent where you keep your Masdevallias.. i was just wondering what your temp range and humidity range is. Especially at this time of year. And also wondering if you normally keep water for them to sit in in the second pot masking the actual pot. Like do you keep it in water all the time? Im having trouble with my Masdevallia lucheana and i keep it in a terracotta pot with moss inside but i feel like im always too early or too late to watering it and wondering if this is a possibility for me. To keep it cool as well because i have hot summers approaching in hune qnd pretty warm by march or sooner in VA

[@OrchidsByBryan]

Yes, I grow all my masdevallia in the cool growing tent. The temperatures are 68-75 during the day and 54-58 degrees at night! My day times hover closer to 72 most days. I double pot all my masdevallias to keep roots cooler. I don’t grow them in straight sphagnum, the roots are wrapped in sphagnum and then surrounded by fine bark, charcoal and perlite. This allows airflow by the roots but still maintains moisture. I will do a video on their care very soon! :)

[@thequeenofsporks]

Which vendor had the mariae? I’ve been looking for one for a while!

[@OrchidsByBryan]

Joseph Wu Orchids had it!
