Thanks! That looks SO close. The only thing is, the plant's pseudobulbs and leaves are laelia-like and don't resemble the usual epidendrum growth habit - it isn't pseudomonopodial.

green-white NOID- Brassavola intergeneric?

I got this orchid without any tag, and I'm at a loss as to what genera (never mind species) it might be. I'm thinking maybe Brassolaelia?

Thank you for your help, and sorry for the fuzzy pic.

LC Rojo 'Oak' in bloom

I got this one last year from someone selling off their collection, and it's bloomed for me! The colour makes it one of my new favourites. <3

unknown tiny species

All I know about this cute little orchid is that it's a species. Any help in identifying it would be appreciated!

Thanks, I bought the terrarium (I don't have the tools to make my own :P)

There's no drainage hole, but there wouldn't be anything to drain- the moss is always moist but never actually wet.

Most of the flowering orchids (including paphs) I've brought home have lost their blooms prematurely. I assume it's from the shock of being in a new environment. When the next bloom comes around,...

Thanks! It's custom-made (for the guy I bought it from) from Akva Stabil. It's got two sliding glass doors, ventilation holes on the sides and a sealed part at the bottom for a water feature. :) :)

Red face How many orchids have you killed?

One way or another, I've managed to do in quite a few orchids. The first one I ever killed was my first den- I failed to give it a winter watering rest and it rotted. I've lost half a dozen phals,...

I rotate my jades and philodendrons and such, but I don't rotate my orchids and particularly not the phals. I wouldn't want to stress them.

This is the second mini phal I got from Forestview Orchids at the last Van Dusen orchid show- labeled as a hybrid of phal amboinensis x phal minus. I've been waiting for it to bloom for sooo long......
