I haven't e-mailed him on that very special plant yet. It is still freezing every night.

The coerula just arrived from Andy's! It is mounted beautifully and the roots and rest look very healthy. Kudos to Andy's Orchids!

Wow, nice looking!!! Now I want a coerulea from Andy's :(

Just curious, I got a mounted miltonia from Andy's last year, and looking at your cute little Catt., I just wonder how you deal when the plant has over whelmed the mount it's on. I'm sure you can't pry it off and mount it on something bigger, and I can see it being difficult to add something to the mount to make it bigger.

Hello all. I went with walkeriana v. coerula as well; I purchased my plant on ebay. I think I might need a more robust pot than what I'd initially thought.

Can't wait to see that one bloom!

Very nice! I saw that plant on EBay and was very tempted!

My walkeriana! Gifted to me by my boss (I work on an orchid nursery) received about last August. Grown in a ceramic orchid pot with gravel for media in high sun. The pseudobulbs always stay plump and the plant should hopefully flower this year! :lol:

Nice ones!

We're back home now. My new C. Walkeriana is on it's way.

This is C. Walkeriana semi-alba 'Carmela' WCL that I bought at Lowe's in September 2015. She has flowered for me and growing three new p.bulbs.

I potted her in a net pot with peanuts in the bottom. The media is a mixture of chunky bark, charcoal and pearlite. She's in a south window with bright indirect light.

I noticed that her new p-bulbs were wrinkly all the time, so I put a saucer with a quarter inch of water under the pot. I wait for the the saucer and media to dry out before watering again.

Carmela is my first Catt. and now I wonder why I didn't grow them earlier...:)
