Top And Essential Orchid Supplies

By Virginia Robinson


Orchids are incredibly vast in diversity and uniqueness and this is what captivates and attracts minds and hearts of enthusiastic gardeners. Their complexity and aesthetics make the flowers so popular when it comes to decorating home and home spaces to give them that exquisite look. For most individuals, the challenge comes in the misconception that all points, not excluding orchids, should be grown in a pot. However, it does not augur well when you condemn these wonderful growths to such mundane trappings. Fortunately, with all the diversity in the orchid family, there are other alternative remedies to the orchid supplies dilemma.

There are a lot of factors that hold the responsibility for the rarity of some species of flowers. Among the many factors includes the destruction of their natural habitat. It is true that flowers are among the highly adaptable plants, but they still cannot survive in the absence of canopy of trees.

Use a tray and give it a raised base inside to sit your flower on, a layer of stones is ideal for this and can look pretty good too. Fill the tray with the stones and almost fill it with warm water nearly to the top, it's important at this point not to allow your flowers roots to sit in the water as this will damage them. The warm water evaporates and humidifies the surrounding air.

Mounting Flowers- The majority of flowers are epiphytic which means that the grow naturally above the ground clinging to the surface of trees or rocks with their roots suspended in the air. If your flower is one of these species, then you will be able to mount it successfully. In my opinion mounted flowers look far more decorative than potted ones and you can get pretty creative.

Cattleya is another variety of extremely desirable flower. Raising these plants is somewhat difficult; however, its difficulty has made them even more appealing. Even those who are well-experienced flower growers find the cultivation of Cattleyas as a challenging task because the plants will not bloom properly if they are not provided with an environment that closely resembles their natural habitat. The flowers of the cattleya are very delicate, and the plant itself requires extreme care for it to be able to procreate beautiful flowers.

They may have materials and orchids supplies but always inspect the quality of orchids that they sell. Sometimes it can be overwhelming to be in the presence of so many beautiful blooms that you buy in bulk without really inspecting the plants. If it is your first time to visit that particular plant store or nursery, be conservative and build the relationship and trust first before investing so much for your new hobby.

Keeping Your Flowers in Pots- If your flower is terrestrial or you just don't want to mount your flower you can keep it in a pot like other house plants. Flowers should be potted tightly, re-potting only when roots begin growing over the pot before they get a firm grip on the outsides making it difficult to remove with damaging your flower.

You need not be an expert horticulturist to grow flowers. If you are an flower lover and would like to grow them and have a collection of your own, then you can do so at your leisure within your own budget. Growing flowers is a fun and meditating hobby. In able to ensure success of healthy and beautiful flowers, you must always be prepared with your flower growing supplies and of course a lot of tender loving care.
