I was told this orchid doesn't like to dry out during periods of growth, well, mine never dries out really ever. It's so thirsty that I sit a tray of water underneath the basket put wicks from the tray into the pot because I got tired of constantly watering it.

It's randomly in flower throughout the year and happenned to be this week on one of it's earliest growths. Took a shot of those as well.
I've NEVER seen roots as freaky as that second pic! They look like p-bulbs and flowers!!! You nasty!

Oh, I got so shook up I didn't even notice it's a Dendrobium. Canes and flowers I should say. You young'ns with your weird kinks!

This is an old yellow phal that I bought from the Nortons’ as a seedling in 2011.

I'm not changing MY tags, and I just grow a few not-special Neos. The lumping may inform relationships, but masks all sorts of useful information when actually growing them!
Those are BEAUTIFUL roots!
