I got that one too from Andy's Orchids. Cischweinfia sheehanae (pusilla)
http://www.andysorchids.com/SearchResults.asp

Its not doing so good. I didnt put it into the viv becuase it looked soo grassy. At first I tried getting it out of the basket it came in, so that ended up in a few dozen ripped up roots. Then I didnt know where to put, and put it back in its basket outside the viv. ops: ops: ops:

I know, I was really bad. The plant has dropped about 3 dozen leaves, bulb and all. And some bulbs seem to be rotting. I try to keep it moist and cool, but I don't know if it will make it. I guess it was just too big for my liking. Maybe I will try to put it in the viv again, this time without ripping up any roots.
