Phal "division" X-Post RGO-ABPO
Oh, boy, have I got a riddle for you guys! I repotted the Phal hybrid that I think is a primary or secondary hybrid (maybe
amboinensis or fasciata crossed with something). It is one that reblooms on the same spikes (what's the term for that?) and is in semi-hydro. It was crawling out of the pot, so I took it out, trimmed it, and set it lower in the pot. After much hemming and hawing, I decided to cut the bottom piece off, which consisted of the stem, spikes and roots. In this way, no spikes were buried in the medium. Now I have this "division" with plenty of green but slightly desiccated roots and a few spikes. Are there any suggestions as to what I can do with it? If I get no suggestions, I will put it into SH separately and hope for a keiki off one of the spikes. I will post a picture on abpo. -- Reka This is LIFE! It's not a rehearsal.

It is possible that you will see a new crown form off the leafless stem too,
but put in semi-hydro or pot it up and let it do whatever it is going to do. Whatever is going to happen is going to take a long time... "Reka" wrote in message ... "Reka" schrieb im Newsbeitrag ...
