2 new additions to the family--mannii and cornu-cervi

[philoserenus]

i got these two yesterday morning from Orchids In Our Tropics



this is the pic of the two, the one of the left is the mannii and the one the right is the cornu-cervi. once i got home i repotted them into hydroton; im not good with moss... they are not in semi-hydro--i melted some holes on the btm of the tupperware.

also, i took the chance to have a look at the roots.the roots were very healthy. the roots on the cornu-cervi was thick... averaged at about 3/4 cm in diameter.

another interesting thing i found about the mannii is that it has slight pigmentation on the stem and on the leaf.






if lucky, i'll get some blooms by the time spring comes around ^^
