Mine has just arrived. Don't have a camera here at work so I will have to take pics later.
I've counted 15 p-bulbs although most seem pretty wrinkled. There are three new growths starting and the three p-bulbs nearest those are a lot less wrinkled.
The whole think looks pretty dry but then it is mounted and has just spent 5 days in transit. The roots look like it's been on the mount a while as some of them have grown through the cork and out the other side.
The TC (the Gastrochilus japonicus) is also looking a bit dry. That's also mounted and also has roots that are starting to cling to the mount and also what looks like a new leaf and several new root tips... also it has a spike
Not sure when I'll get the max to flower but here's hoping the Gastrochilus spike keeps growing for me
