Lephanthes calodictyon

[RosieC]

Thanks everyone, I'm amazed that I've been able to grow this tiny one.

I usually water using a pipette and just dribbling in a tiny bit of water to keep it slightly moist. Occasionally I put more water in and then poor it out again, but I think just dribbling some in works better.

I bought it from Orquideas del Valle a Columbian nursery while they were at a show in London. They sold the bubbles as well, and I think they had developed the idea for people without terrariums. I had seen Orchid Board member Laura showing pictures of one she had bought in a bubble at a show near her in the USA (turns out it was from the same nursery) so I decided to give it a go.
