That is nice! I thought it would do that. I need to take some pictures of mine....

Good it's growing another lead!

Mine is still growing strong--just one lead, no new roots yet. Growth definitely took a huge jump forward during the rainy days we had last week. I hope to get it onto a mount in a few days.

Here is an update on mine:
First is the mounted Andy's walkeriana. The first picture shows one of the new growths and the next is the smaller new growth. It came with new growths, started another earlier this summer and now has these two. Not bad for vigor.
The third and last picture is 'the bag baby.' The poor thing was in terrible shape but it seems to be recovering nicely. The small piece, in the seventh picture, is also doing nicely. The new growth is getting roots.
The fourth and fifth picture is my older walkeriana. It has been popping new growths all summer. In these two pictures, I think the newest flush is easily discernible.
The sixth picture shows the 'Pendative' from Hausermann's. It was bought late in the season but it is getting nice roots and two new growths. There is a tiny piece of that, too, potted up but I did not get a picture. It still is thinking about getting new roots. If it does something, it will earn a picture.

Looking good, Leafmite!

I hadn't thought of trying lava rock with mine--and I still have half a bag of it (leftovers from use as filter substrates in aquariums)....I might just have to find another walkeriana to experiment with (lol)....

The rock is working better for me than the mount though I really love how the mount looks.

Interesting! I have a couple of large (8" diameter and approx 2" high) chunks of lava rock--maybe I should look at mounting my walkeriana on one of them....Looks like it's time for more research.

Leafmite, they look great! I can't wait until we get some buds and blooms. I knew I would get another lead but I was totally surprised how fast it popped up.

These guys really grow, don't they? I think that is why I have become so fond of them. They make up for all the orchids that do nothing most of the time. :)

I actually have a rock, not sure what it is, but it's mounted on top of a piece of granite. I plan on mounting one of mine on that as soon as the roots look like they might survive.

It will be so fun when the blooming begins....
