All things considered with mealies, slugs and wood lice, I would say your sesquelidale is a very resilient orchid. She will grow well again, that top leaf says so 🤩🥰
I think you're quite correct Fernanda that these are very resilient plants.......I've put it indoors where it will get a much warmer environement.......Thank you and take care.......... Ed..
Something I decided I had to do so, like you, I hope that I haven't done thew plant any damage thank you very much Samuel for taking a look.......I have another Angraecum to have a look at tomorrow......another which I had to chop down.......thank you and take care, Ed.
Good afternoon Ed. Thank you for sharing the repotting of the Sequipidale. It had a healthy roots. I repotted my Crestwood few months back and cut half of the trunk. It rerooted well. It hadn't bloomed since. Hopefully I didn't disturb it much(I may have). Thank you Ed and have a good week. Catherine.
What a large plant looks quite good yeah yellow leaves but we all have yellow leaves sometimes on our plants and then they just fall off at least you got some nice new ones on top nice big pots and some nice new media probably helping it on its way slugs or a pain
Thanks for the comment Andrea. Unfortunately the yellow on the leaves wasn't caused by age but by mealy bugs which are a nightmare once they attack Angraecums.....take care and thank you, Ed.
Good evening Nina and thank you for taking a look. I have a large vetchei which I chopped down last year and that also needs checking for bugs etc., May do it tomorrow whilst I am in the mood!!!!.......take care my friend, Ed.
That's lovely Valarie ...the blooms are lovely. Mine has flowered before but I think I'll be nearly 90 before it blooms again......\take care my friend, Ed.
Looks good I am sure it will do well The anagraecum you sent me is doing well All my orchids are doing better since I invested in a soldering iron and put plenty of air holes in thepots
Thank you for letting me know about the Crestwood...I'm glad it's doing OK for you. You do right with the soldering iron....more air the better. Take care and have a good week, Ed.
Hi Ed! I hope you are keeping well. You sound great! Your Sesquipedale is looking great despite its invaders! I find mealie bugs relentless! They are magicians, they always seem to be able to reappear. Do I remember correctly that at some time in the last year or two you cut the stem of this plant into two plants! Did both pieces start to grow. Did the bottom ever make keikis? Perhaps it is another plant I am thinking of. I crown rotted mine and had to cut the stem. The bottom part has grown about 4 or 5 keikis. I hope yours brings you some beautiful blooms in the not too distant future. Take care and have a lovely week!
Hello Beverly so nice to hear from you.. You are right this is one of the plants ( the other one was a Vietchii ) which I chopped down to size. Fortunately the main parts of the plant have taken but the lower halves which had no leaves tried to put out a kieki from the top of the stem but gradually went to the great garden above. I am very well thank you as I hope you are.......thank you and take care, Ed.

Ed..
What a lovely orchid! I am lucky enough to have a smaller one, who likes living under my lights.
I hope that it does very well for you swknoell.....thank you for taking the trouble to post a comment....take care,
Ed.
What an impressive plant, hopefully the repot won’t set it back too much! Take care - Samuel

Hi Catherine...let's hope that both yours and my plant will make some beautiful blooms in the future.....hope you're having a lovely Sunday...
Ed.
Thanks so much, Ed. I have one of these. Video will help me when repotting. Didn't realize this orchid had become more difficult to acquire.
Don't repot it Pat unless you have no option but to do it......they hate being disturbed,
Ed.

Hello Ed, Looks like you looked at that one just in time. I have 2 blooms on mine. 😊👍

Nicely done 😊. Hope it goes on to produce amazing blooms. Think mine is producing a keiki.
I hope so too Rachel....thanks for taking a look and take care,
