Default Bulb. medusa

I use to grow this outside till she froze to death, all but 5 bulbs died about 4 years ago. Thats when I got a small greenhouse and put her in their on a 12" tree fern mount, now it covers every inch and more of the mount.

25 flower spikes now and about 10 more on the way.

My wife calls this her mop orchid, whatever, I dig on its resiliency to come back when others did not..

Congrats... what a wonderful plant. I have the 'Orchidglade' clone that has pink spots on the lip. but it sure doesn't grow as rapidly as yours. Thanks.
