Mine didn't come today as expected, hopefully it won't be too stressed by the extra day in the post. I'm leaning toward mounting mine because I'm a chronic, compulsive over waterer and I'd really like to keep it alive.

Mine came today from Marble Branch. It came with traveling companion "Den. aberrans X Hisako Haraguch. A cross between the aberrans and an antelope - Phal type. Also they included a bonus," Encyclia Chien Ya Smile. I don't really know how to grow that. No experience there.

What a wonderful surprise, I think we all like bonus orchids.

Mine just came from Ray's today, and I have decided to try it on a Kool-Log. It does have a small new growth, not sure whether it's a leaf or bud yet.

So that's what a Kool-log is! Turns out they're surprisingly cheap, too. Maybe I'll get one once my wallet recovers a bit from being wrecked by these orchids.

Wow, that looks awesome, and looks like a spike to me!

The cool log also looks really neat. I saw some Masdevallias on that went I went to the local orchid show. I didn't realize what they were called.

I picked up a mounted plant from Brookside Orchids on Tuesday! It has a new leaf and green root tips, but one of the mature leaves is a bit yellow. And I think it might have gotten more yellow in the last two days? Ack, I'm worried I'm killing it already!

No news yet from Elsner orchids on when my order will ship from Germany.... Hope it leaves Monday, which means I'll get the package 5-7 days later.
