My Irene Dobkin

Just want to share some photos of my Irene Dobkin orchids.

好靚呀...^_^

Thanks a lot.  It was imported from Taiwan.  After flowering, it continues to grow healthily.  I look forward to the next flowering.

This is a intergeneric hybrid between Phalaenopsis and Ascocentrum, which the Asctm. is a genus of plants with massive epiphytic root system like those relatives in Vanda. You SHOULD plant it in higher air-circulated container like wooden bracket, but not a glazed pot with sphagnum moss. These factors would drive it rot in long term growing.

I see.  Thanks for the advice.  I shall seek for more suitable container and medium then.
