This one just opened up for me over the weekend. Nice big blooms (6") with a pleasant mild fragrance. First time bloomer for me (division). I received it in sheath in Sept but no visible buds.

Great pics and wonderful plants btw.

Thanks! They're actually hanging from electrical EMT conduit (1/2") that I tried my bending skills at.

I think it turned out decent and it allows me to change the distance between plant and window for different light requirements. Also, different lengths of hangers let me stuff as many orchids as possible in there! I think I've got 16 there now :)

Very creative! I am impressed that you thought outside the box! The blooms are lovely. What window is that? I see no supplemental lighting.

I am very impressed :clap:!
