Repotting and cymbidium madness

Filed under: Perennials, Flowers on September 6, 2007

The short version today:

Finally re-potted the Calathea and Cordyline from home. Will be bringing them to the office tomorrow to add to the office collection of plants… which is growing… rapidly… oh dear!

I don’t know how it happened, but I’ve gone mad for Cymbidium orchids too. Bought one from Bunnings earlier this week and have bid on 3 others on ebay.com.au! Ah! Where to put these things?! But they’re so pretty… how could I resist?

I have a white Cym right now and the ones I bid on are green, yellow and pink. I want to add a brown to the collection, then I should stop. Not that I want to stop, I just should! The only down side is that it’s going to take a couple of years before I see flowers and that’s only if I give them the right conditions.

Here’s a sample photo of the colours of the Cymbidiums I want in my collection:
