Schoenorchis fragrans
I've had this plant since last October. I got it bareroot, and had to scramble to find a mount for it. Before I found a suitable one it lost a root and 4 leaves (2 on each growth). I was worried I was going to lose it completely.
Then I decided to try something different, I have it hanging in a glass, with about an inch of water. It sits in my orchid cabinet, as close to the warmth of the light I have shining on my plants. It gets brightish light. Since I've done this, it's growing 2 new leaves. 2 new roots and gave me two spikes - one on each growth.
The first spike bloomed two weeks ago and is on it's way out. The blooms were pretty spread out, this second spike has the blooms more clumped together. Hope you enjoy!
