Hi Everyone,
I'm James and I'm from the UK! :waving
Background Info: I work in a Garden Centre so when Birthdays and Events come up, I usually pick up an Orchid and think nothing more of it. It wasn't until I noticed one downstairs that I gifted to my mother, just stud there with no flowers. She was about to chuck it away when I stopped her and took it on my self. I've since trimmed it down but I'm not convinced it's too healthy. (1 spike)
After rescuing this non blooming Orchid, I wanted to purchase one that I could appreciate in bloom, so I bought one from work for myself. Which has since stopped blooming but seems healthy enough.(2 spikes)
A few months down the line (about two weeks ago now)
I purchased this lovely white orchid (3 spikes) and this picture was taken today, and is now in full bloom and looking wonderful.
Last week I noticed this one in a sale for £5, so obviously I picked it up! :roll: This ones flowers do seem to be wilting a bit, but also has un opened blooms.. is this normal?
And finally, just last night I was given this Orchid...
I've since noticed this morning at least two small white insect looking things and a tiny little web, which I have looked online and the closest thing I can compare too is White Fly? How should I treat this?:((
I fear the little pest may have spread to my other plants now? and is there any advice on my first non blooming orchid, I don't think she's too healthy.
