Hello, I would like to know if there is any information about these new growths I am having on two of my Catasetinae: the first pictures are from a
Cycnoches lehmannii, and the second ones from a Fredclarkeara After Dark 'Black Pearl'.
These aren't your regular new growths that come from activating dormand "eyes" in the base of the last pseudobulb. These come from somwehre among the roots, maybe from a pseudobulb, but through an elongated stem that comes from it.
I can't find the real source because they come from from deep in the media and I don't want to dig up the plant. I removed some substrate to take a picture as best as I could. It comes from a thin, green stem, very different from the white dry roots next to it.
They almost look like this group seedlings, but I assure you, there weren't any seeds in the substrate, because they have been with me for a few years now, and the substrate has been changed several times, and I have never fertilised the flowers.
I can't seen to find any documentation of this phenomenom on the internet (and stupid SEO doesn't help at all).
Has this happened to any of you previously? I would love to learn more.
