Fish food

Sprayed all orchids and foliage of the rest with a seaweed / emulsified fish tea. I mixed and let them brew together overnight. This is the first time using fish emulsion on the Vandas. Very interested to see the results a few weeks down the line, hopefully some happy growth. The rhizomatous are sending up their late winter, early spring stalks. Yes, the days are getting longer quickly. Below, a family shot; b 'Selph's Mahogany' and b 'Big Mac'. They need the dappled shade and they need to be left alone once you've agreed upon a place-- I've said it before and I'm saying this to myself. LET THE PLANT BE once you've found the happy spot.

The boys. Selph's flowers are a beautiful light reddish pink. Big Mac's more of antique linen.
