This blog purpose is to share my success and failures in gardening in a tropic. I have no particular liking white orchid to any plant/ flower but once it caught my attention there is no other way for me but to have it. Since I’ve all the local plant that i fancy, now i cast my eyes far away, temperate flower/plant. Hence the existence of My Experimental Garden white orchid Blog. Hope you enjoy my blog.
white orchid I am experimenting with Asiatic lily since the last 3 years. The first year the bulbs grew a shoot for 4 cm then it stopped growing and dies because i grew the bulbs at the height of hot season. Last year i received the bulbs in May. I planted a few bulbs while some of the bulbs were kept in the fridge and planted it in September. One of the bulbs that were planted in May gave me a single bloom while rest of the bulbs rot. All bulbs that were planted in grew September grew to a height of 8 to 12 inches white orchid but none of it bloom.
Early this year i notice many bulbils along the leaf axis.I leave my bulbils on as long as possible to get as big as they can, some even start to leaf out and grow roots on the stem. I pick the bulbils and plant it in a separate pot and it seems it is doing pretty well even though white orchid it is growing slowly. I’m hoping that the bulbils will form a mature bulb which will acclimatise to our climate hence as hardy and vigorous as it is in its native habitat. one and only bloom moderate growth but no flower many bulbils along the leaf axis stem bulbil
