15 year old Big Bloomer
This is one of my oldest dens. I grew it outside mounted on a branch for 10 years until 5 years ago something ate all the new growths. It is in an eight inch slotted orchid pot. At last count it had 115 blossoms. It's best blooming ever.

Very nice! I wonder if its only me, but I dream of that kind of show for all my orchids (and of course don't have it-yet!)
Great growing!

Beautiful! Sometime dens can be picky, so you must really have the culture perfect.
