Fantastic!

What a lovely chid...thanks for sharing with us

Thanks everyone! I haven't had this plant too long. I got it at the Ft Lauderdale OS Auction last October. I only paid $26 for it! Not too many people seemed to want it (lucky for me). The grower was Adamson's Orchids in Cocoa, Florida.

Wow! You have an amazing display there. How many pseudobulbs are on that specimen?

Thanks Ted! I think there are about 18 pseudobulbs (difficult to tell through all that Spanish moss). One bulb had 2 spikes!

I have a small one of these as well - it came potted in very large bark, but doesn't seem to be thriving - the only really healthy and happy ones I've seem are mounted.

Anyone have success with the aggregatum in bark or other medium? Seems like it really likes to be mounted.
