| Mayers Orchid medium recipe did this
For all of you phal lovers that are looking for a nice medium mix for your phals. I don't have the recipe, but member mayers can tell you. He sent me a nice sample that I planted this phal in. The phal spiked after and is very healthy. Here is a pic of the one bloom that is open so far. Thanks Mike!!Tara

Tara: Nice job. I like the color of that phal. Been using Mike's recipe for the past couple years with wonderful success. It's not only a nice mix, but takes the guesswork out of watering. Looks like it's working well for you too. Thanks Mike.

Mike, there is a bit of controversey over the name of that phal. It is only a NOID because all of my tags were thrown away by accident. When I looked up my purchase order it says Baldans Melon Select. NOW I purchased the Baldan's Merlot Prince at the same time. First off I thin I have the two mixed up this one looks more like a Merlot Prince to me, but I swear it had the Melon Select tag on it as I marked the pot it is a huge phal too. Second part in my other post (New Bloomers) Kevin mentioned a red flag with these names. Baldans has them as Baldan's Phal Hybrid Melon Select etc. Anyway I have an email into Baldans to help me figure out what is up with these orchids names. Check my New Bloomer post and you will see the debate. Tara

I like this mix for many reasons, so much easier to tell when you need to water with the mix and sadlly I only have 2 phals in it. The other one is budding and healthy too, will post pics of that it is a mini. Tara

It's a sticky in the potting and media section. I found it with a search for "mayres" postings. Phal Repotting & Media |
