Project 2015 Spring [main]: Amesiella monticola

I'm glad yours looks so good. Mine is trying to grow a new leaf but it's dropping the others. I think it is going to be a goner. Oh well. I do want to kill that orchid that gave it the fungus and me for not catching it in time.

If the roots are still good, it might come back in time. don't give up

Thanks for the pep talk, but I'll not hold my breath I might turn blue.

I hope you can save it. :| Mine was looking a bit parched so I had to pot it and move it to a miniature greenhouse. It seems to have stabilized.

My nubbins have grown a tiny tiny bit. Below the spike I believe is a root as someone had mentioned in earlier posts. This orchid is a super slow spike grower it seems lol

That new root looks good!
It will be interesting to see how long it takes for you to get a bloom.

Andy's has this identified with the Angraecums, I noticed. It does really remind me of one.

[Mandy2705]

Yes it does, I hear some angraecums are notorious for being slow growers and for slow spike development. I still like them very much and have a few myself. The root in the sphagnum moss is doing great and makes me happy every time I check up on this orchid

Yes, some Angraecums are very slow. I have a nub started on my didieri and I think it is in a race with your monticola to bloom (ha ha). One of the reasons I love the leonis is that when it gets started, you don't have an eternity to wait. Every day I see some progress there. Then there is the distichum. The buds are so small that by the time you see them, they are ready to open.

Wow Mandy yours looks so good. My poor thing.
