New Orchid Additions from a Deceased Estate: What Needs to Be Done 

thanks for sharing and caring

So glad they found a good home..😢 My sister passed away last year and her children gave me her phals. Up to that point I had no intention of ever growing phals again, ever!, because I grow my orchids outdoors and my phals always, ALWAYS die.. fast forward 6 months, they're thriving on my patio..🤷‍♀️

😢 luckily they have come to someone who can look after them ❤

14:00 never thought I would find a name for my plant -> Ledebouria socialis. Bought it in a flower shop as a mini, bc... just cute, never had seen it before and it was just... there. It was labelled as Scilla which did't resemble what I found in the internet, The modelled leaves are the same and I had no idea how big it can get. My mini is no mini anymore but a quite bushy plant. Repotted her again last year and she took over the new pot in no time. She accompanies my Phal Liodoro which is in flower every year. I love the sight of these old orchids. They had already a live and now they are getting a fresh new restart... just wonderful. I inherited an old cattleya from a woman who retired and went back to her home country. Its a NoID, but call her 'Alte Dame' (= Old Lady). Still alive and doing great. I hope the former owner too. I don't worry what happens to my orchids yet. I wonder if I will live to see any flowers in my lifetime on some plants 😉 Btw, such great view on the green hills outside. Many regards!

How awesome of you to take care of their orchids😊👏👏👏 It will be very interesting and exciting to see their progress and eventually their flowers! If anyone can bring them back to life you can!!😊❤😊

This is something we should all consider, should we pass what will happen to the orchids. Make arrangements now to somebody that would appreciate them and will really take care of them. Whether friend or family member, you should talk to a selected person or persons and even teach them how to take care of this. I think is was a wonderful idea therefore keeping the plants growing and treating them where needed. Many blessings.

Lucky orchids that someone who knows so much about them now has them. I’m very sorry for someone’s loss, though.

Sad but very interesting to see how to bring the plants back

That’s an impressive collection of den Nobiles. The orchid at 13.24 may be an Encyclia. I look forward to see how they progress.

Looking forward to seeing them thrive ❤❤❤

Btw, how many plants were you given?
