Habenaria, Ponerorchis and Phaius
Ok, here is few exciting things, Habenaria radiata "Ginga" started to sprout, to my big surprise and huge happiness
Ponerorchis graminifolia started to sprout too. For the first time, my Phaius tankervilliae is in bloom, and it seems there is another 2 growths or possible spikes starting. However, my other Phaius is doing absolutely nothing since winter when I broke the new growth with all that moving! Also, Bletia purpurea is starting new growth, and
Stenoglottis macloughlini in spike, Tetramicra canaliculata is growing longer and longer, and Cynorkis guttata is in spike!

Dump the contents out of the pot and look.
Habenaria medusae often do not make it long term for most people because there's no specific habitat info available on this species reliable enough to go on.
