Default Stanhopea jenishiana

This is the first bloom of this plant for me. The flowers lasted 5 days. Two more spikes are initiating.

Ok so I did not read the new posts first.......usually I like to scan the gallery to see what's new first and I posted a rating and comment about this plant already so I must repeat myself a little.........

MDK
That is excellent - please tell us all about. Is that the roots growing upwards from the basket?........wicked!

It looks like you are pretty new here - Welcome to the OB! Thank you for joining us. This is an excellent discussion board with fantastic features (and members), including a nightly chat at 8:00 pm EST.

We all would love to hear about you and your growing conditions, please consider posting something in the Introductions - Break the Ice ! forum.You can also read a bit about many of us there.

It looks like you have a nice greenhouse - everyone would love to see more pics of it too.

Congrats on your Stanhopea!
