Rhynchostylis coelestis

Here is one unresponsive plant. All the other vandaceous would grow several new leaves during the time it was here. Rhynchostylis coelestis had shown the small start of new leaf and its been there for months. It doesn't grow, it doesn't die.
Is it supposed to be that slow, or it doesn't like to be in a vase and I should pot it somehow? I don't know...



I trimmed away some ugly brown roots that it initially came with, it grew some new roots but that's about it.

Mounted mini phals

Here is yet one more mounting I just created. This log of a driftwood came from the pet store too. I put several small mini-phals and one haraella baby on it. There are 4 plants in total on the mount, from left to rght they are: Phalaenopsis gibbosa seedling, Phalaenopsis parishii seedling, small seedling of Haraella retrocalla and last but not least - blooming sized Phalaenopsis lobbii with two spikes.
I put small dab of sphagnum moss under each plant. Hopefully they will be ok. I killed one Phal lobbii potted into sphagnum, this one I decided to mount.



Small Haraella retrocalla baby came off the large one when I potted it on arrival. I will label it Haraella retrocalla II.

Oncidium Sharry Baby

Is that a new growth starting on my newly purchased Onc. Sharry Baby? I think so:



And couple new roots are showing up too. I got it month ago on Montreal show and looks like it is establishing well in the new home.

Phalaenopsis Kuntrarti Rarashati

Bud on my young Phal. Kuntrarti Rarashati 'Copperstate' is growing and becomes darker:



Should bloom soon.

Phalaenopsis cornu-cervi mounted

I had this Phalaenopsis cornu-cervi for several months. It came with two spikes but not active. I have potted it into sphagnum moss as all my phals and waited for the blooms. Nothing happened.
I tried lower temps, higher light, higher humidity with no success at all. Finally I decided to look into moss and discovered that none of the roots had fresh growing point, but all started to rot. After trimming rotted parts I decided to mount my phal cornucervi onto one of the grapewood pieces from the pet store.



Wood has a hole through, so it can be hanged.

The roots don't look all that good:



Hope they will improve on the mount.
