Is it Pomatocalpa spicata Male
Default Is it Pomatocalpa spicata

This orchid plant came to my orchid house from sikkim by a collector. When I saw it first time, the plant was in dehydrate condition. I didn’t know the name of that plant. So it was difficult to decide how I potted it. Finally I potted it in a plastic vanda pot with small pieces of coco husk and charcoal with coconut fiber.
The good news is after eighteen months it’s blooms now. Very small yellow flowers are smiling and says 'thanks' for helping her to enjoy life. I'm very happy now. I am quite sure it’s Pomatocalpa spicata. Am I right?

Yes, it is Pomatocalpa spicata. It is still in bud, they are not in full bloom yet.

Congratulations, they are very rewarding plants to grow.

Default Thanks everyone

Thanks everyone for reply. Your replies will encourage me to do another better job about orchids and in future I’ll tell you another real story of phalaenopsis species. Because 14th March 2013, I collected a Phalaenopsis schilleriana from a hobby grower same condition and with additional fungul effect. He said – “Save her life if you can.” So this is my new mission.
