Did you know that:
Nobile type or Himalayan orchids are easy to grow but are difficult to bloom regularly. The flowers are showy and multi colored with colors like white, pink and purple, and the lip is often marked in contrasting colors. Others are yellow and brown, while the recently introduced hybrids have all the colors of the rainbow. The Himalayan climate is almost like a warmer Switzerland with cold but dry winters.
Requirements:
During November to February daytime temperatures can drop to 40° - 45° when you should not water or feed but give plenty of light and air movement. During March to June there are warmer and moister conditions when buds develop and new growths appear. Then, water less until the new shoots have grown roots. From June to November during the monsoon period which is warm and very wet, give a low strength, high nitrogen feed. Dry and cool the plants during winter so as to get flowers.
Orchids should be watered approximately once a week when the soil becomes dry, but they must never be allowed to remain wet or soggy for more than one or two days at a time. The best water to use is the one which has been allowed to sit for 24 hours so as to allow the chemicals to dissipate. One should feed orchids with water soluble 'orchid fertilizer' every two weeks during the growing season.
Modern history of the Vanilla orchid had its origin right in the 16th century. The Aztec Indians were the one who in Mexico discovered that the seemingly inedible fruit or bean of a tropical orchid, when cured for months in heat and humidity resulted in the exotic aroma.
