Default Scaphosepalum rapax

This is one of the first Pleuros that I have purchased and it is thriving in my orchidarium. It has one flower right now, but has several new spikes that are coming up too. Getting a picture of this tiny flower is pretty tough and it will take me some to get the hang of such small macro photography!!

Thanks Nenella! Here is a link to the build thread I started on the tank I grow my Pleuros in. So far, the growth of my orchids has far surpassed my wildest hopes!!

Isurus, that is a very nicely grown plant! I have 1 myself and know how hard it is to photograph.

Amazing plant isurus,, may I bother you for few growing tips, I did order one for my hygrolon cylinder, and want to make sure it will be fitting to this environment before I mount it. Many thanks!
