After long time not posting in my blog, today I'll start to post the journey of growing and flowering Grammatophylumm scriptum. I have acquired the plan 3 years ago, the plant with 4 bulb. I put it on a pot with 60cm diameter. For the media I use fern and coconut chip, and use 3 small pot inverted in the bottom in order to create more aeration. No special fertilizer, I spray the plant with the same fertilizer as my other orchids. The photo shows 18 bulb of plan after 3 years of growing.
