The Biggest Orchid in The World
This is the heavyweight of jawara orchid world. Jawara is called Grammatophyllum speciosum or seringpula been called by the name of G. papuanum which is believed as one of the variannya. This widespread plant from Sumatra, Kalimantan, Java, and Papua. Therefore, it is not surprising many variants found its variants-with the form of plants and flowers the color is slightly different. In one adult family, this plant can reach the weight of more than 1 ton and long tassel flower up to 3 meters with a diameter of 1,5-2 cm tassel. That is tassel capable of supporting tens of flowers flower bud diameter 7-10 cm. From ... complexion of the local interest rates are often call him with a tiger orchid will ... but this is often a rancu with relatives, Grammatophyllum scriptum have a similar pattern. Therefore, it is also popular with the orchid as a cane, because the trees that form rod-like sugar cane tree trunks. Although persebarannya wide anggrek ... this is a serious threat of uncontrollable hunting and habitat destruction. Form a very large tree easily seen by the hunter, especially when interest rates raise the light. Maintenance is not yet in the natural habitat with a reliable seed is difficult because the slow growth phase of seed to reach the mature plants ready to flower. Perhaps this is the case that underlie why it has become one of the orchid species are protected.
For orchid lovers, it will surely be one of the "most wanted" list in the collection. So that hunting of wild orchids in this habitat can be controlled, then the steps of cultivating vegetative and generative should be empowered. Moreover, it is very easy to the famous shoot of stek bulb. At least, with the vegetative buy orchid seedlings of sugar cane Maintenance vegetative (shoot from the bulb stek) can be one of the efforts to maintain the natural preservation of orchids Indonesia.
Orchid Coelogyne celebensis
This orchid has a scientific name Coelogyne celebensis. Words taken from the name celebensis Celebes or Sulawesi. From the name, we know if this plant has a habitat home in Sulawesi. Morphology trees at a glance, appear similar to the close relatives Coleogyne speciosa. In fact, any type of flower it looks no different. However, for a charming, light enough that the differences can be identified through the labellum shape and bulge-bulge that is located above the labellum. Interest is able to split perfect for 5-7 days, after the flowers faded, and soon will be replaced with the next flower bud. Flowers small cluster size and length, so it was not proportional compared to the size of a large amount of interest. That is, when its flowers bloom, then tandan will droop down, so that interest rates appear to droop. This orchid leaves have a wide, rounded egg-shaped, and the surface wave. Like most other orchids, this plant also has a bulb / tuber quasi inflated to store water and food reserves. Orchid include lowland orchid flower that diligent and quick adaptability. Read more...
save root rot
If the leaves suddenly turn yellow and a lot of ideas, can-can is a sign of root rot. Adenium so that must be saved immediately in order not to die. For root rot is the absorption of water that is too much absorption of water and not through the track through injury.
How to prevent the problem does not rot because of water absorption are:
* Use of porous media.
* Drainage hole must be smooth.
* If Adenium are not in active growth period, the media must be kept dry out slightly before the next sprinkling.
Note: The hose often depends of various factors such as Adenium are actively growing or not, age Adenium, Adenium large, power of media to keep out water, and the size of the pot. So, Adenium give water can each day, two days once, once in three days, according to the different needs of each plant.
Ways to prevent decay due to injury:
* Be careful when making a transplant, not to harm the roots.
* Sterilize tools to do the training root.
* Make a transplant or training only when Adenium are actively growing.
* If there are wounds on the root of (intentionally or not) let the wound dry out before planting and disiram after new signs of growth (approximately 1 week).
Adenium already if we show signs of rot, then immediately pull out of its pot. Wash clean and un-decayed part of the sterile knife. Do not hesitate to remove the decay, only a few remaining, decay can creep. Olesi wounds with fungicide and let the wound dry out. Old wounds will shrink according to different circumstances injury (can be several days until the forty days). If the injury was not dry up, even wet, it means there is little left that is still rotten and worm. Tega-cut is the root of the decay until there is no iota of remaining or re-appear rotten. After the wound to dry properly, then Adenium ready to be planted again. However, the previous application root stimulation and dry again. Planting in the media and do not give water up to a week. The first time must be sprinkling a little bit. When showing signs of growth the leaves or branches give water as usual.
How to cross Adenium
From crossing the goal is to get the offspring of the good fit of merging nature mother. Would that be done on the data recording indukan that can be tracked Anakan later descendants.
Mother that bear the seeds must be large enough so that it is able to bear the burden of these seeds. The number of seeds that can be per mother very large depending on the level of nutrition and mother Feed. So when mother bear the seeds should be given extra fertilizer elements, especially K, because at that Adenium requires much energy. If the nutrition or less the size is too small mother bear the burden of seeds, the seeds can not death or maximum size. Most severe is mother can die if too many seeds that are.
For interest as male, select the old (age 4 days), while the female flowers can still just blossom. Ovary more than the first mature pollen. As much as possible do not have water to enter the interest will cross.
the cross:
* Select flowers that are old (age 4 days) taken to its pollen.
* Use a brush or a wet cottonbud to take pollen. If you need to split part of the flower pollen that is yellow is visible.
* Select the fresh flowers (age 2 days) for female mother.
* Open the middle of the flower to look putiknya. Ovary white flowers and little greenness sticky.
* give thin pollen on the pistil.
* After 4 days, and autumn flowers will appear podded fruit.
How to increase Adenium
There are many ways Adenium spawn. Antiquity of us already familiar with the plant Cambodia Japan. Cambodia is actually Japan is the same with plants Adenium. Type that is widespread this can not have seeds because the interest rates can not produce seeds so the only way breed vegetative.
Then appear new species coming from the developer from Thailand or Taiwan. This new type of derivative is the result of different types of Adenium. The types of this new no-name suit derivative which of course is based on certain characteristics.
