Dividing Miltoniopsis

8 years ago

Hello orchid Friends. I have a Miltoniopsis spiking right noe . already forms buds but it's getting too big for one pot. Could I divide the plant in another pot without harming the budding spikes? Thank you!

    Thanks James!

    Yes, I would wait too. You may also find growths really accordion as the plant tries to re-establish their roots, so buds may definitely abort. They are so fragrant, stunning I would want to enjoy the blooms first...

    Thanks Blutayle. I will wait then and yes, this is one of my favorite. It's deep red and yellow drops in the middle. Fragrant is so nice and light. I tried to post a picture but couldn't do it. I went to Houzz Photo but kept saying Chrome has stop. Could anyone help me? I haven't been on the forum for last couple years and lost my knowledge with this Web. Thanks! Tanie

    Hi Tanie... I just save the picture to my hard drive on my computer from my phone. Then I click the photo camera icon not houzz photo and select photo I want....Here is my Miltie blooming now...and only got two flowers. Believe me when I tell you the whole upstairs/downstairs reeks strongly of this scent in the AM hours.

    I had one yellow with pink in the center. They were beautiful but the fragrant was too powerful I couldn't stand it. I sold them to my friends who love them. Now I have 1 dark pink, 1 lighter and the red one. They all have light fragrant ( not the same of course). They are spiking right now.

    I couldn't do it with my phone. Probably need to do it on my laptop! Unfortunately my laptop is being service right now. Thank you Blutayla.

    Your milt is very beautiful by the way! Is it called Waterfalls?

    Hi Tanie...it is called Emotion "Angel" 4N....got it off Norman's. The yellow one you mentioned I believe is Andrea West and I have it too and yes very powerful...almost too much. Sometimes is has a fresh rosy smell to me and other times almost like body order mixed with perfume to the point it almost turns my stomach. Do your 3 different colors smell completely different? And which is your favorite fragrance?

    Hi Blutayla, yes right now I have 3 different milts. One is pink with yellow in the center, 1 is pink with dark burgandy and white droplet in the center and 1 is red with yellow in the center. Each one has different fragrant. Some has light perfumy some has fruity but light. I like them all. The only one I had but I couldn't stand the powerful fragrant was the yellow one.
