I received mine today. They look great.

flhiker from the looks of your ID tag it looks like we both ordered from Andy's orchid.

I think my gastro has a spike also, I will keep an eye on it.

Well, I finally got around to posting pictures of mine. It was really thirsty when it arrived yesterday. I gave it a quick drink yesterday afternoon and gave it a soak and couple of sprays today.

Thank you both. I love the roots as well. They are truly attached to the wood. I could probably get rid of the fish line that originally held it in place. I got it off from ebay from laorchidjohn. I may just have to order from him again as it looks well grown.

It's so exciting to see everyone's plants!! Why do I feel like mine is the runt of the bunch? It's okay though, I have turned weakling plants it's strong plants!!
If we are doing the Spring project in honor of Dorothy I will have even more incentive to get mine to bloom!!
