Bulbos are fast becoming a favorite of mine and pictures like this are very inspiring.

I agree with Sandy. That is one SPECTACULAR plant. 
The H1N1 flu was the cause of most of my bulbos getting too dry. I really didn't care if my plants ever got watered again. Several are not going to make it.

Winston - There are actually two other orchids growing in the same basket. They were originally in small net pots with sphagnum that were flung on top some years ago. They are Dendrobium lawesii and Den. sulawesiense. The Den. lawesii blooms intermittently throughout the year. Here's a shot of the Den. sulawesiense this past Summer taken from below:

Sorry you were not well Marilyn, hopefully you're on the mend now. Must have been really bad if you felt that way about your orchids. |

I saw the 2 distinctly different growths but didn't even question it...I was too consumed in the blooms to notice. This is very interesting...do both these plants get the same amount of light, including intensity, year long? How strong is the light these are receiving?....as I continue to faint over these pics.
