Thanks Bob.

Mine is staying about 59F at the momment so it's OK. Still not sure if it would grow more if I had it warmer. I'm going to leave it where it is for now.

Larry?

I'm gonna call my Tony! (as in miltTONIA)

Not really that funny but I thought it was cute

[PitcherASAMD]

Just kidding. I realized this is a maxillaria not a miltonia. Hum, keep thinking....

Has anyone named theirs max? If not, then mine is max

[Call_Me_Bob]

how about jimbob or maxine ( did someone use that already? i cant remember ) or manuel ( sp.)

Mine's called 'rooty', because it's making all kinds of new roots. Checked it the other day because it hasn't done anything new on top, and wow, tons of new stuff in the medium. I think it liked the latest warm spell we've had in SF - a few of my plants are budding, including a vanda I picked up in Hawaii and figured would never be happy here.

I've got mine in a tank, under a bank of t5's, average temp is 60-72 (when it's actually warm, which is rare), and humidity is around 60-80. I spray water in there once a day.
