Orchid Updates! Jewel Orchids, Zygopetalum, Cymbidium & Cool Growers | Aquarium medium for Orchids?

Hey everyone, it's Annabel, and welcome back to my channel! Today we are updating on some orchids that I haven't shown lately, some successes and some experimental setups. I'll show you my Jewel orchids, which maybe haven't been shown enough, and my thoughts on their current setups and care. We will take a look at my Zygopetalum crinitum, one of my biggest orchid struggles, and update on the Cymbidiums. We will also have a quick look at a Masdevallia and Restrepia that I've switched from Seramis to the same aquarium substrate that the jewels are in, to test out how they react to it over the coming year.
