100% agree with the Bellina being vigorous because my first bellina was also a seedling and when i got home to repot her she had little to NO roots at all just rotted except new root tip peaking through That’s when i came across your repotting vid and today she has so many long roots now using the fluffy moss technique ❤
......a wonderful video.....showing the before and after is a great lesson in growth.....your orchids are beautiful, green, lush looking, healthy and a testiment to your great care.....your editing shines and the microphone really sounds great as well......big fan....Do you keep a orchid growth journal/log....to keep up with all the progress?
Thank you Rick! I keep track of all my orchids via instagram posts that I can look back on where I describe the fragrance and take lots of pictures. That's how I'm able to keep track of how they did when I'm making these videos. I appreciate your kind words! Side note: I'm a big fan of yours from before I started my channel. Learned a lot from you on how to feed my orchids. Thank you so much for watching! I need to catch up with your videos. Welcome back :))))
KITTY! I love cats…and orchids too… I am very fortunate that my cat doesn’t munch on my plants. I think a lot of them are toxic to pets. I am in awe of how you get your orchids to bloom so fast. I have a few orchids that I got about 1 year ago and they still look like small seedlings. I have started watering them with dilute fertilizer and giving them more light. I hope that works.
Im so jealous of you right now! 😂 I got my Potinara Hawaii Charisma as a seedling in '22. She is growing and just put out 2 canes each about 10 inches long including the puesdobulb. At this minute. She is sitting in my bedroom open window. I can't wait until she blooms. Thanks i know what to look forward to.
My favorite mini/compact catts are the Blc. Solar Flare 'Paradise' and one of you Ethel's Paradise's parents, the Diac. Chantilly Lace ( although I didn't care for her scent this summer--it was her first time blooming after I got her nearly dead a little over a year ago, though.... She's a survivor! I call her a Charlie Brown plant after the tree in the Charlie Brown Christmas. 🤗)
Solar Flare "Paradise" is a good one! That's a nice vigorous one, though I find it doesn't bloom very often for me, maybe like 1-2x per year. I will say that the Ethel's Paradise didn't have fragrance when it first bloomed, likely because it was stressed, and i got it the second time around :)
Because of your videos like this I have acquired a Richard Mueller from my last Hausermann haul, 2 years to bloom, but this orchid grows like a weed so far for me. I recently found a bag baby in which Potinara Hawaiian Charisma is in its parentage so I bought it just because I know how vigorous your orchid is and I’m really hoping the scent was passed on 🤞🏾🤞🏾 If I ever come across Vickie Andrews, it will also be because of your collection 😁😁😁 These videos are awesome and sooooo appreciated!!! 🌺
Thank you for the lovely comment! You have to tell me how these all grow for you when they bloom! That Hawaiian Charisma is amazing!🍧 🤌 Appreciate you watching ❤️
Your cat has good taste lol I have cats too and they munch on all my orchid leaves, especially the ones with grass like leaves. They ate the leaves of my Maxillaria orchid down to the bulbs. Thankfully orchids are not toxic to cats.
I am soooo jealous about your Bellina😩. I bought a seedling at the same time you did and, although I didn’t totally kill it, it only has 2 minuscule leaves and even smaller roots😱 😍
I find Caulocattleya Chantilly Lace Twinkle, which is similar to your Ehthel's Paradise, to be very vigorous as well. I got it rootless, and it bloomed in less than 6 months from the very 1st new growth. It grows very fast and blooms reliably 3 times a year from every new growth (sometimes - from multiple growths at the same time), smells amazing too🥰
Love the pic of your cat chomping down on the leaves hahaha!! Also I didn't know that belina phals grow so quickly! I always thought they were slow growers! Good to know! Great video!
She's such a bad girl!!! haha. Yes!! The Bellina shocked me, bloomed so young too. You can see how tiny she was when I got her! Thanks for watching my friend :)
Hi Nicole. I love your videos as they are very helpful. I have purchased a Phalaenopsis Bellina recently which had one flower on it. It is in spagnum moss. I would love to see a video on how and when to fertilise species Phalaenopsis in moss as I am new to growing in that media. I have also recently purchased seedling P. Mini Mark, P. Heiroglyphica at the time I bought the Bellina. They are all in moss and it is winter here in Australia where I live. I am looking forward to any advice and your future videos. Cheers Ingrid
I have a few videos on how I fertilize and a few on summer blooming phals, and one specific I made a year ago about the bellina. I think they will help out ❤️
Hi Nicole. Your orchids are beautiful. My Cattleya’s Peckhaviensis has finally bloomed. Very happy to see a bloom after waiting for about three years. 👏🥰🤗
@@NicoleDeanna she’s a little fragrant. Yes nice smell, but maybe that will improve next time she blooms. I would send you a picture, but I don’t have your email. Enjoy your Sunday. 🤗
As for cattleyas, my fastest and easiest to grow one so far has been the Dialaelia Village Chief Perfume WCL (White with Purple Lip) which I bought from Lowes last year. For my novelty phals, the schilleriana and violacea are growing faster than my bellina. The violacea already has its first flower spike and the plant is only 6" wide. They were all purchased at the same time, but just like yours, the bottom leaves fell off, but I think the problem it had was a bacterial infection which isn't surprising considering I bought them in February.
@@NicoleDeanna I bought 12 new cattleyas in May so I'm curious to see how they will grow. All of them have been repotted and some immediately started making new roots such as the Rustic Spots. I currently have them in tall butterfly cages in an eastern facing porch with windows. Here are the high/low readings for June so far: Humidity: Low (26%), High (81%) Temperature: Low (55°F), High (100. 4°F) They are in a mix of mostly medium size bark, large perlite, and charcoal. Some have a little bit of coconut chips/husk and a top layer of sphagnum moss. I had them outside in the rain yesterday.
Hi Nicole, these are all so beautiful and I have two Richard mueller or three hybrids that do great! Now, Pot. Hawaii. Carisma Hawaii I purchased from Carmela’s orchid in June or July 2020 (the fragrant deal, only two survived! 😮) passed away it kept rotting for some reason and never made it. I did purchase two more from other vendors and I killed them. I really don’t know what I did wrong, but let’s see if I try it again one day lol. 😝 The Ethel’s Paradise is smelling amazing… I did not pick up the scent when it recently bloomed again. I do have a Bellina fire by sib that is currently growing new buds. I have some Kingiadums but they have not bloomed yet, scared of the bug magnet they are or can be lol 😮. I think I have the Anobi Purple, hum… but it has not bloomed yet, I need to check if this is the one I also have lol. You are an excellent cultivator of you orchids. Be blessed and stay cool.
@@NicoleDeanna yes, that’s how we learn and that was my first order ever of orchids. It was exciting and still is lol. I hope my two surviving orchids from Carmela bloom soon so I can show the update after so many years. 🥰🌷

Nicole, esse é o tipo de vídeo que mais gosto, pois mostra a evolução das orquídeas.
@@NicoleDeannaGostei muito! Cada vez que você mostra um dendrobium, como a orquídea número 2 do vídeo, eu imagino ele crescendo em uma árvore, aqui no Brasil. Ficaria gigantesco!
I also have a species orchid. Got her as a seedling last summer, Aug. "23. The one you say smells like "burnt rubber." Lol I had to repot this one 2 months ago. This time in spagnum moss. I thought she would stop growing the new leaf that was coming, but after about a week, i noticed that the leaf was really growing. I just call her Wilson and i hope she will bloom for me maybe next year????
Great video, enjoyed your list of vigorous orchids! Do you know if c.rustic spot (very similar to your yellow Richard Miller hybrid), is as vigorous as your one?
Thank you! I think it will be because it bloomed within 6 months of me getting it and is growing well and quickly. Time will tell! I have a feeling it'll match the vigor of Pauwela Spots.
If I don’t like the foliage on an orchid I usually plant pass on it since almost half the time that we have them they have no flowers. I feel your pain with the leaf munching cat. One of my cats loves to eat flowers mostly. I recently brought my pot of pansies in to dead head them and she decided to munch the flowers away herself. Can’t turn my back on her. Whenever someone gets me flowers I have to try to keep them away from her. My orchids are up high enough on shelves that she has not yet tired to get up there. Recently she has been attacking my Christmas cactus. I’ve had to put a barrier up to keep her away from it. 🙄 Such a nature lover.
I have a cross of C. Small World and Richard Mueller which is the second cattleya to bloom for me. Its flowers seem to be very similar to the flowers of your Pauwela Spots. I got it in March and it started blooming in the end of May. I also love your dendrobium Enobi ‘Purple.” Does it need colder winter temperatures?
C. Small World with RM has to be nice. The Enobi Purple doesn't need cool temps. I treat it like any Den Phal and give it warm / hot temps. No winter rest as its an evergreen orchid.
Wow $20 for that Itty bitty?? I just got an enormous flowering orchid for $18. Is it a location issue? I'm in southern California. The orchid has no tag however.
Yeah, it was $20 for the species Bellina. They are more expensive I find, but I've seen good ones in Florida even bigger for the price, so I do think it's a location issue.

Thank you ❤️ They are special to me :)

I'm so glad it was helpful :) These are great orchids!
your Phal bellina is huuuuge! I didn't realize the leafs/plants get so big. i'm glad it rebounded for you after the radiator accident.
Thanks so much! Yes it surprised me too! :)
Always enjoy watching your videos!👍Thank you for sharing your experiences in growing orchids at home.
Have a great week ahead 😊🌸🔆🌺
❤️ thank you for the lovely comment!
Beautiful orchids. Thanks for sharing. You always inspire me to go and purchase new orchids that I don’t have. Richard Mueller is my favorite. I 🙏💕
