Default Maxillaria tenufolia 'JoAnn'

My newest 'chid just arrived on Wed., potted. I had a medium-sized cork mount, and mounted it last night....I'm really pleased how it turned out!

You should be proud..nice job mounting . Just mounted a few myself today...sometimes an extra pair of hands help when using fishing line.

Really? Dang, I'm going to have to find a new place for it, then, because I thought it liked a lower light...

Nice job Rhonda. Love them minis!

I don't do most Dendros or large, "floofy orchids". For me it's minis (like Angraecoides), Paphs, and others that crept in somewhere along the line. See my orchid list for complete collection (usually not current.)

Lookin good Rhonda ! mine also likes high light .
I would wait until it is established on the mount before giving it a lot more .
Panty hose strips work good to tie to the mount don't look to hot , but are easy on the roots .

I haven't been to Los Osos in forever! Probably should go, but I've bought so many orchids in the last 2 months I'm perpetually BROKE!

Hey Gin..
Thanks for the High Light Vote...hopefully I'll get a good place squared away!
