| Cymbidum |
My Cymbidum in bloom this year.
My collection of six or seven orchids were not doing well and did not look happy. I could not understand why as I had a care taker - I was talking to them, taking care of them, but they were just not happy. Why? the weather in L.A. was great - left them out at night but no response.
At the time, I was keeping company with Jim who came to visit me in L.A. I asked if he knew about orchids, he said "a bit" well I immediately made him look, his response was "orchids do not need their roots in water, that is a BIG NO NO". We took them out of the water that had collected in the pot and within days they were happy. By the way, Jim is now my husband.
