I am new with my Orchids { Cymbidium } and, need help_information on transplanting. and, just what to do with the { stock or spike??? } that the flower grows on. I don't know if, the stock/spike is to be cut off or, just cut down. I would like to replant very soon as the flowers now have died. sending a pic just to be sure this is the correct name for the plant. If someone knows, Thankyou_Tree
Here this might help. I just remember thousands of these in a big hot house in my youth. We used to raise them for the flower trade. One of my jobs was watering and removing black leaves. Apart from that I am not that fond of them :) but admire people who grow them. :) http://www.tesselaar.net.au/growingguides/cymbidium_orchids.asp http://www.susanavery.com.au/factsheets/Cymbidium_Care.pdf http://www.sheridangardens.com/thegardenshop_Orchids.htm Use Google with "cymbidium orchids care" and there is lots more Liz
