Some of Our Phalaenopsis Are In Bloom
We grow these under florescent lights on shelves in the basement. Phalaenopsos are very easy to grow and require very little maintenance. We water them once a week. Every 4-6 weeks we add a very small amount of fertilizer to the water. They grow in plastic orchid pots filled with Douglas fir bark chunks.
Great Looking Grapes
We have grown Marquis, Mars and Reliance for a few years now. This year it looks like we will have a lot of grapes.
