Here it is!
It is doing well! In fact, it has formed roots and it's leaves have become shiny and green
Check it out

Guess I forgot about this thread. I also purchased one and found out real quick it does not like high light like most Dendrobiums. Two of the leaves turn yellow then reddish. Since I moved it down in the orchidarium to lower light (less than 700 FCs) it's done great. Still no flowers, though. Mine's mounted on a cedar slab.

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

Ross, my plant have yellowish leave tips. According to the nursery, it should be normal for this species (or at least for some clones). They also said that in order to have it happy, it should have enough light until the leaves turn a bit on the reddish side

Ramon, that's good to know. I think I will slowly reintroduce mine to stronger light.
