Allotments 4 All

As promised to EJ!!
 
These are on their 2nd flowering in a year, worth the money as they started flowering before Christmas and still going strong!
Not too clear, sorry!

Wowzers!  Fabulous colours!!  Most jealous.  ;D

Those are fantastic DP, wish I could grow orchids like that :D

DP Lovely pics. Love the colours. Do I assume right in thinking they are hard to grow??

fab DP :)

Lorna, no they are not hard to grow, I have the abitlity of killing most houseplants, but these seem to thrive for me!! ;D

Thanks DP. I think I would like to try, what "form" do you buy them in?? You know me, don't know much!!!!

Just the plant form, preferably in flower for me so I can see what it looks like!
Your local nursery or Garden Center should have loads!

Thanks DP Will go and have a look.   Lorna

Also here in holland they are in bloom

Beautiful. Thanks for sharing.    Lorna

Here is my effort of Orchids....

Beautiful photos.  ;D  ;D  ;D

Lovely, gorgeous and wonderful!  Carol, Ruud and DP, they are all gorgeous!

I was bought two lovely orchids last mothers day and although the flowers lasted ages and were beautiful, I dont know what to do with the plants now, I've hung on to them hoping they would flower again, but sadly I dont really know how to look after them,  (there were no instructions on them) apart from the fact that they dont like much water.  Should I have cut the flower stem off? do I feed them again now? can someone advise me as I dont want to just get rid of them although the green leaves are very healthy looking

Sorry only just seen this!
I water mine about once a week and use an Orchid feed as per instructions on the pack. I cut the flower spike down by about a half, and they will often reflower off this spike, happening to 2 of mine that I cut back as I type
DON'T get rid of them, they will reward you with more flowers, honest!!
