Default New haul from Andy's
My new haul of minis should be here tomorrow. I ordered new plants for the orchidarium selecting primarily low light/high moisture candidates. Here's what I ordered:

Aerangis fastuosa
Aerangis hyaloides
Amesiella (Angraecum) monticola
Ascocentrum (Dyakia) hendersonianium
Cischweinfia horichii
Dendrobium aberrans (another to join the 2 I already have)
Dracula lotax
Gastrochilus calceolaris
Pleurothallis tribuloides
Tuberolabium (Saccolabium) kotoense

None of these needs more than 1000-1500 foot-candles and every one needs or tolerates high amounts of moisture and humidity.

Here's what mine looked like in bloom last year...

The blooms last a long time, too

Mine has one spike preparing to start the show. It takes a while for all the little nubs to become buds but when they do, it's wonderful

Susanne, mine is mounted on a very large piece of Manzanita stem and has roots hanging down at least 6" below the wood as well as several new roots with nice green tips.

Good luck with your Dyakia. I have two new ones and hopefully they won't die on me.

What was the problem? My conditions seem to fit this guy to a "T". Very wet and warm I can provide. In fact I have the most problem with those that need to dry out. As I recall, you hand mist your vivariums?

No problems yet. Just wishing you luck in general. I do hand mist. I am keeping one in a much warmer environment than the other. We'll see which one is happier in the end.
