You have a Encyclia Guarechea Black Comet it is in the Cattleya family, and it is fragrant. Vicky, I believe your mother's plant may be an Aerides quinquevulnera. It is quite fragrant. I purchased one from the sale table at RF Orchids in 2022. It took a year-and -a-half before I was able to nurse it back to better health. It has since bloomed twice once in fall and again in late spring. My plant has another pike now. Sergio/Vicky where did you buy your Habenaria erichmichelii?
I am delighted to see you making your vandas their own tranquil garden. As we find beautiful plants to add to our collection it becomes a logistic game to accommodate on our property. Yours has plenty of growing space so enjoy the planning of your expansion. Once again you two what a marvelous job of filming and bringing more education to all of your viewers.
🌟⭐🌟⭐🌟 Respectfully, Debbie
Hi, Debb. Yes, now we are sure we have an Aerides. A couple of viewers said it, too, and we saw one in the Redland show Saturday. The Habenaria we got at an auction in our orchid society. Watch the video, We joined an orchid society.
Thanks again for your beautiful comments and feedback. That's the fuel we need to continue in this beautiful journey 🤗💓😘
Really good video guys. Often times we see videos of growers who have large orchid areas, many trees to hang orchids etc, but seeing what you’ve done in a limited space truly resonates with the average orchid grower. Well done guys. That Vanda section looks incredible. I am sure you will build a similar structure for the other orchids in no time.
Hi, Alejandro. We also have to be aware of the HOA rules and regulations, which is why we are having to redo the old area. But it's all for good. You are all going to be impressed when you see it. Thank you always for watching and your beautiful and honest comments. Saludos.
I really enjoyed seeing your collection. It is definitely growing larger! You certainly had an over-wintering challenge but all looks great now. Maybe you should take some of the blooming orchids in the house so Vicky gets to see them more. Your new area is fantastic. ❤ Good job Sergio! I’d love to see periodic updates on your progress, collection and blooms.
Hi, Mary. We are very happy that you enjoy our content. We do have blooming plants in the house, and you just gave us an idea for a video. Thank you again 💓
Pretty blooms Sergio you did an awesome job in that Vanda Lane. Thanks for sharing your collection.😍
Thanks so much, Grisel 🤗 💓
Hi Vicki & Sergio
I am also a transplant from South Florida. We moved up to the Daytona Beach area about 3 years ago. Yes the winters are colder and longer! It was definitely an adjustment. What I ended up doing is putting sliders on my Lani with vinyl panes instead of glass. That's where the orchids have wintered the last 2 years and it has worked out great for me.
Thanks for all the videos!
Hi, that's a great idea. How many plants do you have?. Hopefully we'll meet you someday at a show or nursery. Thank you sooo much for watching, enjoying, and making a comment 🤗💓
@vickyslikes I haven't counted lately but the last time I did I had just over 150.
I love new area good job
Thank you ,Larry. " 😍😍🤣🤣
Wow🎉🎉🎉love your collection 😍 ❤and your new section 🎉🎉❤wow, stunning!! Well done, Sergio 😊! Our late friend that specialized in vandas said that vandas are like teenagers, they love to eat and they love to drink.....so basically it means to feed them weekly and water every day fir minimum 30 minm 😊😊your place is stunning 🎉🎉❤❤ thank you for bring us along your travels and sharing your journey with us❤🎉😊
Thanks so much. 🤣🤣🤣 we've never heard that about vandas before, very funny but true 💓
Such a beautiful collection!! You guys have so many and such a diverse variety of diffrent ones!
Thanks so much, Emmanuel. We hope you had a nice birthday 🎂
Beautiful collection congratulations 👏👏thanks for sharing 😍🌱🌱🌱
We did this video in part for you. You had requested a while back. Thanks, Rosana 🤗💓
Love your new space! I can’t wait to see that plant with all the spikes, when it blooms. At 12:54 is Iwanagara Appleblossom.
Thanks, PC. Oh wow, you know what it is. Thanks so much. We saw something very similar at the Redland Festival this last Saturday. Like always, we really appreciate you.
So the plant we saw at the Redland show is called Aerides odorata. Another viewer, Claudette, said the name, and we went back to the video from Saturday, and it's the same name.
The viewer is talking about the plant you got from Lowes with the 2 Pink flowers.
Thank you for sharing your beautiful collection! It is truly a wonder to see. We have recently visited the “cinderella” castle, and at the hike, We found some native terrestial orchid😮 I did some digging, and it is called Neottia nidus-avis. Again, thank your for sharing your amazing, beautiful blooms, and I wish you even more blooms❤
Thanks for the compliment. Sorry about the clutter, but you all are going to like the finished product. And now, we have to find that native orchid you mentioned 😎😎😎😎. Thanks so much again 😀 🤗💓
@@vickyslikes Don’t worry, it is more neater than ours 😆
@epicsushi5817 🤣🤣🤣
Always love to see your garden 🪴
Thanks so much, Irene 🤗 💓
I'm loving the new grow space at the end! I have just moved into a new house and I want to do something nice outside that I can close in during the winter but I have not figured out what yet. I will be watching to see what you all do. 😊
Yes, we had to redesign it. A work in progress, perhaps you can visit us when it's all finished. Thanks so much again!!!!
@@vickyslikes I would love to come see it and all of your Orchids when the new space is finished!
That's awesome 👌 👏 ❤
I live in Brisbane Qld & our temps get downto 7deg C but average 10deg C in winter. I bring vandas, & hardcane dendrobiums & young catts. inside at night. All the other genre do o.k. As we don’t get frost. Even a lot of warm growing orchids seem to adjust.
Hi, Roslyn. We have almost or a little over 400 plants. We don't have space for all of them inside. They did great this last winter with the plastic and the heaters. Thanks so much for watching and giving us your input.
Good job 👏!!! Beautiful collection 🤩
Thanks so much, Graity 🤗 💓
Each of us orchid lovers deserves a little place to enjoy them and them to grow comfortably.
You are 💯 correct. Thanks again for your support!!!
You mention that the mounted orchids not taking to the pine board. One of the channels I love is Rick L's Orchids and he has a video about some orchids not taking to certain planks and I think he said it has to do with the ph of the wood and some types of wood are not as good as others.
That is correct, Duane. Thanks so much.
Hi
The no ID Catt that Sergios mom gave him is the iwanagara apple blossom. I also have that and it can get very big. It is being eaten up by either snails or slugs. Hydrogen Peroxide will take care of those critters and she may like a repot because her media is likely filled with eggs from the snails 🐌 and sluggs.
🤣🤣 it's Vicky's mom. Thanks so much for your suggestions. We have now concluded that it is an Aerides, though.
@@vickyslikes no the one in the green pot.
en amazon hay muchos diferentes el que yo compre es 10x12 y el techo el alto suficiente para caminar adentro oh y son bien faciles de montar mi esposa y yo lo montamos en una hora , pero se los recomiendo , no se van arepentir, no mas sand bags lol
Hola, gracias por la informacion. El problema es que no se puede ver desde afuera por las reglas de HOA. Gracias por mirar nuestros videos y comentar, se los agradecemos mucho 🤗💓
If I may, when you mount orchids..what I do to help them produce roots abd grab on quick, I mix half spoon root hormone with honey(tea spoon ) or molasses. I mix it in a pry bottle 750ml I spry them once a week with this mixture. I saw it on a Japanese growers channel, snd it works🎉🎉🎉.
Oh, nice. We use superthrive. And now, we've been using a fertilizer from Palmer Orchids. Mr. Palmer developed the Better-Gro brand many years ago, and now he came up with this one that has calmag and seaweed all in one. One for weekly feeding and one for monthly. We love the results.
@vickyslikes fantastic ☺️we don't have those here. I am waiting for Amaxon SA to stock the Sevin that Nelson uses. Happy growing 😊
We do use Sevin also, great product. Thanks, Jaenie, again and again ❤😘
Vicky's mom's orchid looks to be Aerides odorata a species from Southeast Asia.
Hi, Claudette. We think you are right. We are getting different names from you all. We saw something similar at the Redland Orchid Festival this last Saturday, and we think it is what you say it. Thanks so much for watching and your input 😊 🤗💓
If you like koi ponds I have an awesome backyard you could vlog!
Hi, thanks. We have no space for a pond. Thanks so much.
I’m trying to understand HOA mentality. Folks in FL grow orchids/tropical plants in nice greenhouse structures all the time - seems to be part of the culture ❤️. Would your HOA veto “any” and all structure over fence height? Or just some things? Even if you proposed a pre-fab kit greenhouse or even a fancy classy high-end greenhouse like a Hartley? Ha ha, not saying you should- but I’m just curious. Seems so limiting. You are really, really ingenious to design your structure under fence height! Great adaptation 👍👏🎉
Hi, Mary. Pretty much, all communities with HOA have similar rules. While it is annoying sometimes, it's better to live in these communities because there is certain control as to what color you can paint your house, keeping your lawn mowed, etc. But then you get people with power trips and start making people's lives impossible. So, yes, we have to adapt and make the necessary changes to avoid issues. Fortunately, there is a new law in Florida that prohibits HOAs from ruling what not do in your property, as long as you don't see it from the street.
@@vickyslikes so could you build a greenhouse structure in your backyard? I imagine not because other folks' backyards face yours. Well your greenhouse structures are great and I can't wait to follow the progress ❤
We are rebuilding the old growing area so they can't see it from the street. Thanks for keeping up with the videos. We appreciate it very much ❤
Hi Vicky, 😊. Whats the frequency of watering your orchids?
Hello, in summer we water twice a day, two or three times a week. But remember, watering depends on what media you grow orchids in. We use a mix of clay pebbles and bark mix. Thanks so much for watching.
