Well, just this morning I noticed two little nubs growing up from under the other leaves. Looks like new leaves are on their way!!!! Took long enough, lol...

I had 6 flowers and cross-pollinated all of them. 3 with other mini-catt pollen - problem was I couldn't find the pollen at all ! These 3 obviously failed.
The other 3, I "selfed" and pods are developing. I will post photos a bit later. The surprising thing for me is the size if the pods in relation to leaf-size. Its still early days, but you will see what I mean...
The flowers are so tiny that this exercise was the most difficult for me to do when compared to phal pollination. I had to use a magnifying lamp and even that wasn't good enough ! Another thing - the cernua pollen is greyish-black ( as opposed to the usual yellowy ) - and I literally forced the pollinia in with a pinhead.
I will be pleasantly surprised if this experiment is successful.
