Default My latest haul of Jewells

Just received 5 new Jewell Orchids from Rob this morning and already they are in their happy new home.

  Front row, left to right: Goodyera schlectendaliana, Anoectochilus chapaense, Ludisia discolor. Back row left to right: Anoectochilus roxburghii, Macodes petola.

Hope the Ludisia straightens up somewhat after time.

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.)

My Ludisia is one of the most active plants I've ever seen in terms of quickly turning toward the light. Give it two days under an overhead lamp and it'll be rock solid.

Great choices all!

Thanks, Scott. I was hoping that would be the case.

Congrats Ross, I'm sure your gonna love growing these.
Don't worry about the jewel, it's just a packing bend. As scott said it'll turn towards the light. Mine look like that too, within' 3 days it was straighted up

Rob is a VERY friendly member of this board that lives just south of me an hour or two. Visit his web site, you'll be glad you did!
