A couple of my Lepanthes are recovering well

Since taking them out of the oversized terrarium that I've learnt from, they've had a little setback (well the Calodictyon had only 1 leaf left), and now they're recovering.

C. Fimbriata

I read Coelogyne, especially Fimbriata, were not suitable for semi hydroponics. However, I had 3 cuttings and thought I'd experiment: this one is by far the best. It doesn't really trail and has...

Mine is a warm growing hybrid in almost certain of it, I'm sure its the Siriporn Pink hybrid. I'll do some double dose rainmix in the next few waterings. The coir lining is also fairly old so hold...

Anyone in the UK used these vendors before?

This is The Dark Orchid: they're newly established but seem a little expensive for UK prices, but then some seem reasonable?

Nectria on roots of Neofinetia Falcata

The plant also hasn't...
