Unboxing and Flasking Orchid Seeds! | Home flasking - first attempt | Collaboration project!

Hi everyone, it’s Annabel, welcome back to my channel! Today we are unboxing a seed pod sent by Nina from Ninja_Orchids, which is Vanda denisoniana Dark Chocolate ’Star’ x Vanda ’Dragon Fire Lip’ - Nina renamed ’Leopard Yawn’. I then make my first attempt at flasking with these seeds, at home in a DIY disinfected closed ’Still Air’ box. I will update as soon as something happens- good or bad! Hope you enjoy the video!
