A quiz. Name That Orchid
The leaves & the pseudos are quite different to others. The leaves are very
firm, the pseudos are quite large about 3inches across & have spots on them? A very slow grower for me & oh yes, I have mislaid the tag? Cheers Wendy |

Thanks Ray, At least I don't have to worry about the spots. I have an
onustum that is mounted but this plant is quite different. Cheers Wendy "Ray B" wrote in message news:g7tci.8249$pd5.2576@trnddc02...

A quiz. Name That Orchid
Hi Kye,
I am hoping for someone to jar my memory! It had a tag but it is missing & this is the first flowering so I can't look in my photos either. The quiz part in the Subject line was just to get you to look! *g* Cheers Wendy "Kye" wrote in message ...

A quiz. Name That Orchid
And it's just a baby! It will get very large and beautiful. Mine has about 100 flowers on it on two spikes and it's not full grown. I have another one with about 6 pseudobulbs that decided not to bloom this season. Gene "Wendy7" wrote in message ... Hi Kye, I am hoping for someone to jar my memory!

By jove, I think he's got it! I do have that name in my data base & J
Pfahl's description of the species sounds spot on. Thanks Gene. Are they very slow growers then or is it just me? Cheers Wendy "Gene Schurg" wrote in message news:F9yci.15$tI5.9@trnddc08...

A quiz. Name That Orchid
Mine usually grows one new P-bulb a year on one plant and the other has
broken two leads so I get two new p-bulbs. After the p-bulb matures (late late winter here) I usually see a spike begin. The one that bloomed this year started over two months ago and is still going. Probably have another month of blooms coming then I expect it to start growing and the cycle begins anew. One of mine (the bloomer) is growing in a vanda basket made of wood. The larger plant that didn't bloom is overflowing a 6 inch clay pot. They are great plants and interesting even when they aren't in bloom. Good growing, Gene "Wendy7" wrote in message ...
