Hello there, I am from Canada and a beginner at growing orchids (12months) I bought a pink disa uniflora which is flowering beautifully. Thanks for this very interesting video, I have subscribed to your channel and will enjoy watching your videos during the next few days.

Thanks Andre 😊🙏 I would recommend that you also do a search the KZitem platform for “Gardening at Douentza Disa orchid care”. She’s been growing Disa orchids for years and has had great success with them. I will be putting out an updated Disa care video at some point in the future so watch out for that one too 😊. Good luck and happy growing 🪴🌸

What was the outcome of the mother plant in this video? Did you get any new babies from it?

Hi Nigel, it survived for a while but then it got scorched in one of our really hot days here in Cape Town. I'm making some adjustments to my growing space shortly to accommodate growing Disa orchids more easily so stay tuned :)

Hi do you know where I would be able to get small plants/ flasked plants in the Cape Town area?

Hi Hein, sorry for taking so long to reply. Recently started posting again and back on KZitem :). I have started flasking a few orchids on my own to give it a try. I have been wanting to setup a flasking for a while and translate my human cell culture experience to orchid flasking :D. I will keep you posted if anything comes from it. Otherwise, I don't know of any growers based in Cape Town who sell flasks but I know that Stephward Estate in KZN sells flasked orchids. I sometimes order from them so let me know if you're keen and we could always share courier costs. Otherwise you can check them out at www.stephward.co.za/?id=17&menuid=25 ... They sometimes have stock that isn't on their website so drop them and email :)

Just want to post a quick update on my repotted Disa kewensis orchid: Since I changed the environment and placed her next to an open window with a constant breeze she has been doing really well. I have also supplemented light by placing a 20W energy saver cool white fluorescent light 15 cm above the plant, as the window does not get any direct sunlight.
