For future reference, though (just in case you happen upon a probably different type of small ball), I have read that some growers (before you obtain the orchid) fertilize with a type of small ball, but yours do not look like them, as far as I have seen pictures of and read about.
Someone else more experienced than I please correct me if I have given Susie incorrect info. I don't want to lead her down the wrong path.
Good growing,
Vicki (aka brit6v)
By the way, Connie...your info and photos have helped me, as well. Thanks.
