Passing glances

 

The slightly cooler, bright (drier) days, along with a little PlantDynamite have coaxed masses of color from the bougainvilleas. The plumeria, top foreground, just love bright, dry weather and reward the gardener with pure white, with a very gentle scent- on a still day.

 

The orchids were fed this morning with some Jacks 20-20-20 and a capful of seaweed. As per my "Vanda Month by Month" reference, it's time to ratchet down the feeding in preparation for the slowing- dormancy- of the winter. The tropical sun may keep some growth alit. 



 

Making a run to RF Orchids tomorrow morning. I really want to splurge and buy the largest dendrobium aggregatum they have. Going forward, fragrance will be my guide in the orchid houses.
