That's a pretty cool looking plant and flower spike, Heli. I know that schoenorchis orchids are fairly small, but could you tell us how big your plant is, please? Looks like it would fit in even the most overcrowded of collections. Good growing!

I've just ordered Schoenorchis manipurensis ( http://www.orchidspecies.com/schoenmanipuirensis.htm). Can you tell me what the conditions are like in your terrarium? Temp, light, humidity, etc.?
It seems that these plants can be fairly adaptable as far as temperature goes? Just wondering what you've been told?
One quote on culture that I could find states "Culture similar to that given equitant oncidiums, but cooler in winter, will allow S. fragrans to thrive." (This was when the Indian range in Manipur, India was considered to be a part of S. fragrans from Burma and Thailand.)
