How to handle winter dormant orchids!

- Опубликовано: 19 июн 2024
- We are DEEP into winter here in Melbourne and the cold weather has lead me to ponder all the various types of 'dormancy' my orchids go through and the slightly different care that each requires. So in this video I thought I'd review the orchids I have that go through some sort of dormancy from a hard one to more of a rest, and explain the whys and wherefores of what I'm doing. Depending upon your environment and growing methods you might have a wildly different regime but this is what is working for me...at the moment!
I mentioned Jane Tonkin's rare bulb list is live and you find that here for her Pleione bulbs: www.tonkinsbul...
Hi Matthew. Thanks for the video. Concerning the Thunia. The plant needs the previous cane as a nutrient store so it shouldn't be cut off. As new growths develop the old cane shrivels and can be cut off when it is fully depleted. The old cane may well have produced keikis as well. Mine certainly do. Happy growing.
Thank you! I regretted cutting it IMMEDIATELY!
Thank you Matthew 😊
Speaking of uk 🇬🇧 weather, following a warm spell in April, it turned cold enough (4°C) at night, that my Christmas flowering Hellebore has been fooled into flowering on this Summer Solstice ☀️
Wowser!!!! Our weather is the same then!
Very informative video. Thank you very much!!!
Thanks for watching!
Thankyou
Thanks for watching!
7:02 If you have the proper weather conditions but maybe not the proper soil to plant an orchid in the ground, you can always bury the pot in the ground instead of just the rootball. If you have the proper summer temperatures but cold winters, you can bury your pot in summer and pull the pot in fall... This allows you to move the plant without disturbing the roots. 💖🌞🌵😷
Thanks for watching!
Carol, from Melbourne. This was great. Thanks, again!
Thanks for watching Carol!
Hi Mathew😌🙌Great episode on Winter dormancy👏🥰I have Bletilla in the garden here in Japan. It gets down to -8℃ on nights and the garden can have a permafrost in areas. It's almost completely dry in Winter, but moisture still remains in the soil 30% or so. The days are very bright and Sunny. Did you find a phaius flavus yet? They get about 2 or 3 light rains here in Winter, and dry low humidity. The Summer they enjoy hot humid weather with a lot of rain. I enjoyed watching🤲🌟Thanks so much😌🙌💖
Thanks for watching! No - haven't see one!
About that thunia... I hope you haven't composted the cane yet, the part that is not dry can probably be used for propagation (videos can be found on YT). With mine, I keep the cane during winter, to provide with additional reserves for the new shoot. In spring, once the new growth reaches a decent size (use your best plant lover judgement), I cut the cane and propagate.
Interesting! Thanks for watching!
I was going to say... No luck with the sun and beach in France yet 😅 so don't be too sad about winter
Ok! Thanks for watching!
Amazing information as always Matthew. 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thanks for watching!!
Do you follow the "Ninja Orchid" channel? She's in Spain, sounds like she has a similar climate/winter as you. She also is growing indoors/outdoors with no extra lights, like you and has a vast collection with various species of orchids. 💖🌞🌵😷
Yes - we've collaborated a few times!
Habenaria are quite tricky. I've not had success with retaining the rhizome of Habenaria. Little water becomes too little and a bit more becomes too much. Most of my Habenaria rotted off
Yes - TRICKY!
I love you Mathew 😅 I’m fearful too 😢
Thanks for watching!
I Enjoy watching your videos you light up my day and tell me things I don’t know 🤷♀️ about my Cymbidiums 🙄of course I take it with a pinch of salt ! lol 😂 x
My mum brought me a Cymbidium from Melbourne. So it came from very cold to Turkey’s summer. And here is so hot😊 I’m afraid if she dies, cause she is very confused 😅
I would be too! I'd just try and give it a gentle environment to adapt to it's new conditions; dappled shade in a cooler spot - while it adjusts. Good luck!
@@helloplantlovers I placed it on the balcony. It gets sunlight at 17:00 in the evening, but it is 29 degrees during the day. It is 3 degrees lower inside the house. Where do you think I should place it? I also thought of watering it in 20 days because it is in a plastic pot and it does not dry out immediately. What would you do? Thanks 🌹
@@galatasarayyoutube5561 They can manage the heat - mine get much hotter summer temps! Don't worry. Not sure you meant 20 days?? In summer I water mine every day or every other day.
@@helloplantlovers I don’t get why but the soil hasn’t dried for 10 day and it looks like it wont dry for another 10 days. And thanks for the information. Greetings to you sir from Türkiye. 🌹
What time do u post ur videos? You say it is Friday there. It is Thursday at about 1 PM. And it is Friday there in the wee hours .
He is in Australia: 1 day ahead of in the States and it is beginning of winter there while it is the first day of summer in the States!
My vidoes go live at midnight AEST Friday every week.
@@helloplantlovers man I can't believe how late you stay up 😁. I am in bed by 10 PM lol
@@squeekee35 I do not think you have to be up when a video is “posted”: the video creator can schedule ahead when his/her video will be posted!
Thankyou
Thanks for watching!
