I took it in bright shade with my phone. As it looked.

No, can’t make the meeting. It’s. not likely they would upgrade it, as I think size is only a small part of the score. .

Thanks, it helps to start with a great plant!

Orchiatta, charcoal, sponge rock mix.

Thrilled with this bloom! OP purchased from Waldor in 2021, has never bloomed this well. It blooms twice a year every year for me under lights but this time paused, and hasn’t bloomed since this time in 2023. 3 flowers, one inflorescence. Largest is 16 cm NS which is a full cm larger than AM...

Best orchid forum on the internet IMO! Welcome from VA.

This is gorgeous!

LINUS!!! You silly goon!

I probably post the blurred ones 🤣🤣🤣

AMEN! We do it automatically now. Not an unreasonable request. And truly part of the equation.

Hi John! Welcome. This is the mother-lode of slippers and wonderful for catts, as well.

Soaking would require clean water AND a clean container for each plant. Or, you will spread any disease or more importantly virus that the plant carries. Cleaning a container between plants would be very time consuming requiring bleach, Kleen Grow or maybe both to disinfect for virus.

PeteM can you speak to this?
