Thank you very much for the insights Howard! I always appreciate your videos very much, I've learned a lot from you. Also there are bonus points for the production quality too :D No nonsense, no messy slides or anything like that... just pure wisdom and this minimalist pure style which is perfect in my opinion. Incredible value and great for rewatching too! Thank you very much for taking the time to educate us and (I assume) until next year. I wish a great time to Fiona and you until then.
Hi Mercy, Thankyou. If you haven't found him already you need to subscribe to Orchid House Fort Lauderdale. That will be a great source of advice and inspiration for where you are.
I'm from Belgium Antwerp and I really love your vidéo. Shame that we are not in the same country or city. Because I really want to visit you in Cambridge and learn more and more of you and you incredible beautiful plants. Best regards Erich
Прекрасные растения,❤ ценная информация об уходе за не распространенными орхидеями. Всё устроено очень аккуратно. Спасибо за ваше время и ваши рекомендации! Хороших праздников!
I love your species phalaenopsis! And your methods of growing them. I’ve realized they’re my favorites as of now. And the couple primary hybrids I have. Lovely
M from the tropical country of malaysia and just came across your channel. I was in an awe that i needed to straight away subscribe to your channel.. thank you so very much for the insights and valuable information of each of these miniature orchids of yours. I am an orchid enthusiast and your channel is definitely worth watching. Thank you Howard and eagerly waiting for your next videos. By the way Merry Christmas Howard🎉
Hi - I discovered your channel around a month ago. You have inspired me to make a cabinet to expand my orchids & trying to join a local society. Just want you to know that your a positive influence (not to my bank account) and your collection is awe inspiring. I would love to see a video from you on where you collected these & also one on your caretaking. While I've caught glimpses of these throughout your content, I would love to see a dedicated video. Keep being you!
That's great that they have helped to inspire you. Episode 36 is quite good for seeing some routine tasks and maintenance if you haven't already watched that one. I've been collecting them for quite a few years now. The main sources have been orchid shows, mail order specialists and swaps with other growers in Cambridge Orchid Society. I don't know where you live but recently Spicesotic Plants, here in England, have been a trusted source of many of my plants.
@@HowardRicejust watched that episode at your suggestion - wonderful :) thank you so much for the information, I haven't had a response from Croydons society but will try in London. I will definitely look into the orchid shows!
Hello Howard! Thank you very much for your educational videos!!! Im always enjoy your orchids with beautiful flowers. In California Im struggle with them in summer. Merry Christmas!!!
I just love your videos especially about mini orchids! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and for such beautiful pictures/videos/close ups! Merry Christmas!
Hello Howard, thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience. Would you mind telling us what species of live moss you are using for your mounted orchids. I have not found any at Ecuagenera. Cheers!
I'm sorry I don't know. Amongst my plants I have lots of different mosses that have taken up residence where the conditions are suitable. Some have come in with plants from other growers and nurseries, some I've brought in from our garden. In my opinion it doesn't matter what the species is providing it grows happily, isn't too vigorous and looks attractive.
Do you have any chiloschistas? I've recently become aware of them and am considering a lunifera, but I've found limited videos on them. If you have any I would love to see them and know what conditions they like!
I have viridiflava but I'm still working out how to grow it well. About 3 months ago I watched (using the translate function) a video from Roberto Martins Micro-orquídeas who is in Brazil and he did a very good video on Chiloschistas. I think this link might work. th-cam.com/video/fe_bb6hz_ac/w-d-xo.html
Not sure about that. Mine get a bit of air movement. It is generally reckoned that nearly all orchids need some air movement. Although I've recently started growing my jewel orchids in a small enclosed terrarium without any air movement and they are doing well whereas before they didn't. I'm hoping to do a video about them when I think I've got something useful to show.

Thanks so much for your very kind observations.
Thank you very much for showing your beautiful Phalaenopsis mirabilis! I would enjoy to see more of your miniature Phalaenopsis and other Aeridinae
So pretty , and I enjoy watching your video
I have never thought miniature orchids were cute but since watching your videos , I 'm having second thought. thank you .
I live in Miami Florida and already started my orchid collection. New subscriber 🎉

Thankyou. You are very welcome. In winter I really envy your climate. So much better for most orchids than in the UK.
Thank you for your quick reply. I have several species of mosses in my garden. I’ll start trying them with my orchids.
Kind regards
Julie
just make sure you don't bring in any slug or snail eggs with the moss. You can quarantine it by keeping it moist on a plastic tray.
as always very fascinating
Thankyou
Thank you so much for your video!🎉
You are very welcome!

Wonderful video, thank you very much
Thankyou
Love the moss indicator concept, going to try that, thanks
I hope it works for you too. For orchids that hate to get too dry for too long I think it helps a lot.
Thanks for sharing. 👍👏
It was a truly wonderful video about beautiful plants in a magical place. Thank you. ❤❤
Thankyou. I enjoy making the videos.
Hello Howard! Thank you very much for your educational videos!!! Im always enjoy your orchids with beautiful flowers. In California Im struggle with them in summer. Merry Christmas!!!
You are very welcome. Our two challenges are the opposite of each other. Summer is easy for me but I envy your climate in winter.
I just love your videos especially about mini orchids! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and for such beautiful pictures/videos/close ups! Merry Christmas!
Thanyou. Best wishes to you also.
As always very informative, thank you so much for these videos, and I wish you and your family a very Merry Christmas and a happy New Year.
Thankyou. Best wishes from me too
Merry Christmas and thankyou for the information and the beautiful orchids have a great new year from Tasmania.🎉
Same to you!
I never waited for someone more than I have waited for your update sir Howard☺☺☺ merry Christmas and happy new year🎉🎉
Thankyou. That's very kind.

Where did you get the phalaenopsis mirabela?
I bought mine from Spicesotic Plants here in the UK.
I’ve read it doesn’t want air movement at all
Not sure about that. Mine get a bit of air movement. It is generally reckoned that nearly all orchids need some air movement. Although I've recently started growing my jewel orchids in a small enclosed terrarium without any air movement and they are doing well whereas before they didn't. I'm hoping to do a video about them when I think I've got something useful to show.
That woody part of the treefern is called the throng you need to be careful as that part of the fern is very acidic
Thanks. That's useful to know. I'll look into that and do some tests.
