Wilsonara Orchids ( aka Wils )

without comments

Wilsonara (Cda x Odm x Onc ) orchids are crosses between Cochlioda, Odontoglossum and Oncidium orchids.

Wilsonara orchids require more light than most orchids. I give mine several hours of very bright, indirect sun. No direct sun.

Keep moist but not sitting in water. You’ll probably want to plant this orchid in sphagnum moss or potting soil.

Temperature should be above 50′F

This is an easy to grow orchid.

Flower arranging

without comments

Flower arranging is one of the things I have quite a bit of difficulty in doing properly. Usually I stick to growing plants and letting them arrange themselves.

Today I went to a demonstration of flower arranging using the construction, transparency and mono-botanical methods of design.

I post the images here as inspiration for myself and other interested souls.
