Awesome roots! They look very healthy. Good job.

Since this one seems like an ongoing project I decided to post my newest deflasking.
Paphiopedilum hangianum deflasked yesterday March 29,2014:

This Paphs looks good too! How many did you have?

Bob I had these out of flask a little less than a year.

Those look great Orchideya! Nice and healthy.

Thank you guys!
I was impressed with the quality of this flask considering that it came all the way from Taiwan. And quantity too: instead of 20 planlets it had way over 30.
The only thing - it was in glass jar, so I had to break it with hammer, it was first time for me dealing with glass flask, but everything worked out fine - I just wrapped it into plastic bag and hit on the side close to bottom.

Hope at least one survives to blooming and I will see the flower in THIS life

Looks good! Keep it in bright warm condition with gentle air movement at all time. I bet a few seedlings are mulitgrowth!

Should grow well for you but they are slow growers!

Thank you Paphman910. I kept them shaded by larger phals, so need to move them. How bright?
Phalaenopsis-bright or cattleya-bright?
Thanks.

Phal brightness is perfect for them!

Did you just order them and have them shipped from Taiwan? Had you ordered from the seller before? Well done!! I'm sure you will see them bloom.

I ordered it through Ellen Lee from Crystal Star. She takes care of importing, papers etc. It was my first time from this seller, and I think I will get more. They have large list to drool over
