Default Neofinetia falcata Onamisecai

I have officially given up on growing my Neos the traditional way - on a moss mound. This one has been growing mounted for about 2 1/2 years (this is the 3rd season of growth) and it resides in my tank where there is no rest period, where humidity stays above 90%, where there is a constant heavy breeze, where it gets misted every 4 hours and water/fertilizer daily and where it gets 1800+ foot-candles light for 12-14 hours each day.

The blossoms speak for how well this orchid likes the growing regimen. The nectaries are pink (hope that shows up) and the blossoms are nocturnally fragrant.





Thanks for looking.

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.)
