You might try planting them out in the garden. This orchid has become naturalized in Florida in some areas. I started with one, and now have a few hundred as a ground cover in a planted bed. Seems they reproduce from seed easily.

Hello Bill! So you think these Orchids reproduce from seed very easyly. That is a very good news, since i have 5 seedpods growing. I was thinking to send the seeds to a Flasking Service, but following your experience i think i will give it a try. The truth is that i recieved this Orchid from my Aunt, and she has a lot of these plants in her front garden.

I will take your advice;0)

Thank you very much,
