Looking great! If you can keep the curly-tails under control, looks like a good year for Catasaetinae!

also, since i was interested ( translation, extremely sleep deprived and spaced out looking at the plant) the older stalks of the bamboo seem to average 45-55 flowers before they retire and start keikis and then lean over to spread the colony.....darn good return on growing investment for ME lol

Glorious show! OK, I'm sort of weird, but it's that little leafless orchid, blooming nicely, that especially grabbed my attention... what is it?

[Keysguy]

Yeah DC, what is that, a Chiloschista?

and 4th pic....is that an Aspasia? Shape looks a lot like my principissa (God I love that name! ) which just started blooming but is a different color (yellow & white).

Any trick to getting the Eria to bloom? I have one Jay gave me a couple years ago (he couldn't figure out what species it is so what chance do I have?) that grows like a banshee but hasn't bloomed for me yet.

[DirtyCoconuts]

I have the Eria with my Dendrobiums. It was too hot in the cattleya table and other than that I just water and stay out of the way. Fully inorganic mix

The leafless in bloom is chiloschista so. NoID ‘northern Myanmar”

I laughed at the seller when I asked why name a NoID and he said it was the tag he got so it remains....and so it does lol

I took another pic in focus. It’s a super cutie

And the 4th pic is a white desert rose

[Keysguy]

Sorry----4th pic on the 4/2 post?

[DirtyCoconuts]

Oh. It’s a zygote. Harlequin something or other. I can check the tag eventually

[Keysguy]

Going back to a prior discussion we had on this thread.......look familiar DC?

Now known as Phalandopsis (fmr. Vanda) Little One. (Vandopsis parishii x Sedeira (Phal.) japonica.
