From J&L and I am really Pleased!
Hi, now I have to remember how to post the pictures! I have two of them. One with the leaves and one with the roots. Both look very good. Let's see if I can do this correctly!

Geez, those are some healthy looking plants. Great idea about the humidity cup. I need to do that with one of my phals.

Thanks, I read it and it is very interesting! I still haven't gotten around to putting all the culture info in the first post, but I'll add your link in when I do!

Mine arrived today! It's such a tiny little thing and I'm already in love 
Lots of healthy looking roots. The roots had grown into the old bark media, such that it was impossible to extricate them without doing substantial damage to the plant. So I only removed a couple of the looser bark pieces, and placed the orchid into a 3" clay pot. I added a few fresh bark chunks along the sides and bottom of the pot, very loosely arranged.
What do you guys have in mind for lighting? For now, I'm hanging the pot about 5" away from a CFL growlight, which I think is on the bright side.
Pics attached.
