Simply put……..WOW! These orchids/plants love her! 😂 It doesn’t matter what she puts them in, a basket, an old grill, a pot, mounted, etc, they just grow and do amazingly 💚 She was so generous to share with us how she cares for her orchids and keeps them so healthy. Videos like this is truly inspirational 💕 I hope you continue to do videos at her home because it’ll never get old! Mahalo to both of you for such a wonderful video! Btw I loved the orchids she gave you, that was so nice of her 💕
Thank you so much! This was truly special. She was so kind to rein it’s me to her home. We will do more of these together as the seasons change. She has blooms all year round. The variety in her collection is endless. And you are right. No matter where she plants her orchids, they do incredibly well. 🤗
Golly, Mercedes is such a wealth of knowledge. Thank you so much Mercedes for allowing us into your yard. The colours are amazing. I gained so much information that I can use for my orchids. Thanks also Nelson, I love these visits 🎉
I cannot say enough about this visit. I think it is better than any orchid show I have seen. The variety and healthiness of these plants is amazing. I am just blown away by the amount of plants in her area and the condition of them all. Amazing. I am so grateful that you have revisited her and she shared her watering and feeding regimens. I am gardening in the West Palm Beach area so we definitely have similar growing conditions. The plants she has growing in full sun surprised me and I am going to seek out some of these as I have lots of full sun areas. I was surprised that she does not water vandas every day and I did not see any watering or misting systems. Does she hand/hose water everything? I have a small vanilla orchid and I am going to secure it in the pot to an umbrella tree. Thanks for that advice. The gifts you were given are awesome. Thank you again for revisiting Mercedes' gorgeous garden.
Hi Jill! Indeed her garden feels like an upscale orchid nursery. She keeps it very simple. Make sure to acclimate your orchids slowly out to the sun. I still water my Vandas daily. I do keep them in hotter environments. Mercedes keeps her Vanda close together under a stronger shaded house. Mine are in full sun and some in the screen house. So they dry up very fast. Remember everything about orchids is spending time with them and move them around constantly in your yard until you find the sweet spot. What may work for Mercedes does not apply to every single orchid collector. I show you guys different ways of orchid keeping so that you can test it out yourself and discover better ways of orchid care for your environment.
Thank you for allowing us to visit your beautiful garden and collections again Mercedes! Nelson you are the best, watching this video made my heart smile! keep up the good work!
Congratulations Mercedes all very beautiful 😍Nelson thank you so much for the video forthwith opportunity to be able to see so much beautiful orchids 😍🌱🌱🌱🌱
I am so glad that you made this special home visit for your viewers. What a beautiful garden. Mercedes has wonderful sound advice for all of us to follow. Grow and care for our orchids today so the plants are strong and future blooms and flowers are beautiful for next year when they give us joy. Respectfully, Debbie
An absolutely gorgeous garden! Thank you, Mercedes! It is so fun to spend time with other growers! Thank you, Nelson! We learn so much with your videos!

What a beautiful Paradise Mercedes has created. Thank you Mercedes for sharing your Beautiful garden with us. !!! And P.S. thank you for your growing advice !
What an amazing paradise! I really appreciate her sharing the valuable feeding routine as well! I'm in Central Florida and am trying to get everything into lava and charcoal as well. I have heard so many people having great results with this medium. Thank you Mercedes for sharing and Nelson for bringing this to us!!
@@naturenel Yes! I hope you do another visit. She obviously knows what she is doing with Orchids so anything she shares with us is very much appreciated. ❤️
Wow Absolutely magnificent, Thanks I learned a lot from your video n Mercedes tips, very helpful video ,Thanks again for showing us beautiful collection of Orchids
Wonderful show! Loved seeing her beautiful orchids and all the information along with the information you put in print so I could screenshot and save. Thank you Nelson and Mercedes.
Mercedes, once again I would like to thank you for allowing us into your home again. I have the white Cattleya with the purple lip as well. Bag baby from Home Depot. I have always bought them and have incredibly gorgeous blooms. Your Vanda’s are incredible. You certainly have an incredibly gorgeous collection Nelson, I sure appreciate all you do for us. It’s always special. Thank you so much.
OMGGGGGGG!!! Be still my Heart and a Million Sweet Thank YOU's to Mecede's and to you! I've had orchids and loved them for 30+ years and never seen anything like her orchid passion! And what a GIFT!!!! I'm choked up! And am So very Thankful for the invaluable Orchid knowledge shared by her and you! I feel my orchid passion renewed on a WHOLE NEW LEVEL!
So nice to hear your excitement. I’m glad we were able to ignite your passion for orchids. She is a good example of persistent care and experimentation, eventually leads you to a master grower. It takes many years but the end results are priceless. 🤗💚👍🏼
What's an incredible orchids garden, Mercedes! You're such a professional orchids planter! Your garden is so beautiful & organized & clean. Thanks so much for your tips on how to taking care of orchids! Nelson, much appreciate your time to put up this video on RUclips to let everyone learn about the tips to grow orchids from Mercedes. Both of you are so sweet & nice. I really enjoy the video & learn so much today🤗🥰
Awe! That’s so awesome. Mercedes video is really an amazing episode. I plan to go soon and do another home visit with her. This time I want to go in more detail of her secrets to growing and feeding.
What a nice visit to this orchid grower's garden. It is always interesting to see what Mercedes is growing in her garden. It is BEAUTIFUL! Thanks for sharing.
This tour is so awesome. Thanks Mercedes for sharing with us. I am certainly going to use your feeding formula. What a little paradise you got there. ❤
I am in the process of RELOCATING my mini orchid "garden" (in the planning stages) from my North Eastern facing porch, since I am also in the process of remodelling my home (bye, bye porch). This video has given me the inspiration, and innovation of redesigning an orchid space - under the eaves, and along the trunk of my very spacious mango tree!! Most of my orchids now need to be repotted in new baskets - and like Mercedes, I use a lot of charcoal - and beach pebbles (no lava rock here) - my "go-to" fertiliser and fungicide is aloe vera "juice". For the first time, for the past two months, my orchids are beginning to mature and bloom - profusely! My orchid passion began in 2020. Thank you so much Nelson and Mercedes for your guidance and inspiration. 💚💚💚🌱🌱🌱
What a amazing paradise she has created, not fancy at all, the basics, love it. My eyeballs were all over the place, such beauty everywhere. Thank you Mercedes for showing us your garden and spectacular blooms. Thank you Nelson for another visit, I have no words
hey hey hey💖..! Mercedes, your hands are blessed, nature shines with the orchids!!! beautiful garden, 🤩thank you for sharing your experiences . Nelson, thank you for making them reach everyone
Hola Mercedes 😊 Espero que vea este mensaje. Gracias por mostrarnos su jardín, es increíblemente hermoso con tantas orquídeas en floración🤩. Gracias por los consejos especialmente lo del peróxido, cuida a sus orquídeas con tanto amor. Me ha dado mucha inspiración. Saludos desde Trinidad y Tobago en el sur del Caribe 😎🌴☀️
Thanks to Mercedes for allowing us into her space and for giving us all those tips. I have no words for the beauty of her orchids and the way she has arranged everything. I love your gifts. Are the onicidiums sphacelatum?
Glad you are learning and growing orchids through my channel. Love to hear that. Definitely place your bamboo out in the sun. If you have had it in shade, make sure to move it little by little. Don’t go from shade to sun in one day. It may burn the leaves. Start with semi sun and work your way to full sun in a matter of a couple of weeks.
Hello Nelson, we live in Leesburg, Florida, and we love orchids. We have several orchid plants. My husband went to Orchidsinbloom in Apopka a couple of days ago, and he spoke with Pam, the owner. He mentioned that we have a RUclips channel and that we would like to make a video there. She said, sure. And she mentioned you and your channel. We both subscribed to your channel. One of our favorite videos is the last one at Mercede's house. We've bought all the products you and her recommended to feed and take care of the plants. Thanks so much!!!!.
Great story! Pam is so sweet. I’ve been covering Apopka for 2 years now during Orchid festivals. You never mentioned what your RUclips channel’s name is. I would like to check it out. Thank you for joining my channel. 🙏🏼 There will be a huge orchid and plant show on November 3,4, at Krull Smith in Apopka. That may be a great place to visit.
@naturenel Our channel is Vicky's Likes. @vickyslikes. That will be awesome, the shows. Let us know when you are up here again. Perhaps you would like to do a video of our orchids. We have a small green house with about 100 plants or so. I am from Argentina but have been raised here since I was five. My husband is Cuban, and he came over in 1979 when he was 18. Thanks so much for replying. We enjoy your videos very much... keep it green.
@@vickyslikes I would love to cover your collection. Only thing is when I’m in Apopka I barely have time to do anything outside the events. But I’ll definitely keep that in mind. I’m gonna check out your channel now. It’s strange cause I did look under Vickyslikes and nothing showed up.
I really love this episode, i learned so much... I'm so guilty about over feeding my plants....thank you so much for this dear Nelson and Mercedes..i definitely follow this ❤❤❤❤❤
Love Mercedes but if heaven. Thank Mercedes for the many valuable information.. I will surely try them on my orchids. I have been successful with phalanopsis for many years. Venturing out in other types
So very beautiful!!! What a treat to see all these beauties. Mercedes, you are an amazing Orchid lady. I am going to try And follow your directions to care for my orchids that I have growing under my oak tree. I live is Southwest Florida. They have bloomed for months months and I really didn’t do a lot to cause this, of course I talk to them and tell them how beautiful they are and all that and I do care for them,but they have been amazing, I don’t have anything like you have I just have what my family Has given me for gifts. But I am Learning. I am so Amazed by your beautiful orchids. Thank you for allowing us to come into your home(via video) and see them all.. God Bless 💕
Sounds like you are slowly starting to collect orchids on trees. That’s super awesome. Talking to them and playing music to them does make a difference. Happy growing!🤗
Thank you Nel and Mercedes for the lovely tour and for showing us your fertilizing routine! I already checked out Amazon and bought the Osmocote and the little feeding pod. Thank you for sharing!
Absolutley amazing garden!! She must have 400 or 500 orchids! And they all look Incredible! Love it! ❤👏👏👏 so many great ideas, too! Thank you both for showing 😊

You would get lost in there. If you ever visit Miami maybe we can go together. I missed you at the Redland show. I was hoping you would be able to arrange it. But there is always next year.
Oh my God Nelson she is so cute, our typical Cuban Mom I love her!! Mercedes is special!! 😊💖🌸 Her garden is absolutely amazing! Thank you so much for sharing. 🤗

I cannot say enough about this visit. I think it is better than any orchid show I have seen. The variety and healthiness of these plants is amazing.

Hi PC!👋🏼 yes they are sphacelatum. 💚
Nelson, wow, I have learnt so much, my bamboo orchid will be getting moved to a more sunnier area.🎉 Thank you for an amazing episode. Keep it Green.
