Ceratosylus rubra

This plant has bloomed with more flowers. Thought I'd post this anyway. The dark orange flowers make the plant quite appealing.

from NJ...your plant is super! Need advice please...Mine is on a 2x6" wood mount and has been this way for 3 yrs and doing so-so. Should I peel it off and remount or pot it up? Also your culture. Thanks

Hi DeaC. I would keep the plant attached to the wood mount and let it hang down. I water my plant twice per day, especially the portions that are hanging. It seems to like it damp. I fertilize once per week with a foliar fertilizer (1/2 tsp per gallon). I have my plant hanging with my Vandas under 50% shade cloth.

Many thanks! Without orchids there would be no orchid people to make friends with. Your space across the other pond sounds heavenly.
