catasetum tenebrosum
just got this weak back bulb of catasetum tenebrosum during a orchid fair two months ago, the vendor do not have a medium size plant all that is left is the flowering plant so i got to settle for this weak back bulb (love at first sight with the dark flowers and the yellow lip)
didn't tot it would make it but did not give up hope and started to give up a new keiki recently. i think this will be the only last chance for this bulb so was just wondering any "special" tips to make sure this little guy make it. thanks
two pics attached here, one the the shriveled bulb and another is the keiki and a new root started to emerge.
