Check the Project 4 gallery and you can see what the flowers look like as they develop. I posted pics yesterday after watering. Each bud is now separated from the spike and they are all growing their cute little spurs. I hope to have flowers before Christmas!  |

Terri, those are great pictures! My buds are just barely separating from the spike. It is neat to see the progress....I wish I had a camera good enough to capture the detail you have captured. I bet your flowers will be a few weeks ahead of mine! I can't wait to see them! |

My project 4 looks different
My little plant seems to look different than others. Is it possible I got the wrong variety? Here is a link to my pictures: http://www.orchidboard.com/community...95&ppuser=2142
One is when I first got the plant, the others are from today. Roots are coming out of this puppy like mad, a few leaves, but no signs of spikes. My leaves also seem thinner than others I have seen. It is currently under fluorescents, approx. 3-4 inches from the bulbs for about 16 hours a day. I soak with distilled water, with diluted food and KLN. Maybe I should try the water without the KLN? Any ideas?
Thanks a bunch! |

Nope, yours looks fine. Actually extra-fine! Lotsa new roots. Did you see this link? Aerangis lueto-alba var rhodosticta - in Wardian case Look at those roots! Yours are nearly as robust. Quit worrying! When your baby is ready it will bloom and then you'll know for sure. Keep doing what you're doing. |

I agree--it looks great. The roots are wonderful. I don't have new roots that look that good on mine.
