I have had a few orchids no luck with cymidiums at all so dont want them again, I have some catlayas and some bush orchids I live in Newcastle Australia and do have a problem with feeding either too much or too little and not having the right thing, is there anyone out there that can give it to me in a simple way, your help would be appreciated...annstar

ann,

I live in Melbourne, grow a few cattleya alliance orchids, some indoors, some outdoors, and a scattering of Australian natives (Sarc, Den, and terrestrials). I don't fertilize at all. I gave my Cymbids a mild shot in the summer. That was all.

The cattleyas that have a lot of Sophronites coccinea grow outside and can handle the cool. The rest grow inside in a south window (no direct light) and they bloom too.

You cansee pics I've posted of my orchids here: Orchids du Jour

I grow mostly slippers (Paphs) but there are pics fo my cattleyas and dendrobiums too. And I don't fertilize but only a very little.
