Spikes and reblooms in Orchidarium
Hi Everyone just an update on my orchidarium with a few orchids reblooming and new spike.
New spike on Oncidium Pacific Sunrise 'Hakalau'
Rebloom of Tolumnia Pink Lady and Oncidium Carnival Costume - Mini
I have not fed these orchids at all just water and misting.
Most are young 2+ year seedlings and seem to be doing well.

They look great. Who is that climbing the ladder in the last picture? Is he real?

Great looking display, Sheridan. I love looking at orchids that have just been misted, all plumped and healthy looking. Everything looks just great in there!
P.S. Is that a neofinetia in the lower left (last pic) that the cute teddy bear is showing off?

Sheridan, you have a very beautiful orchidarium! and your blooms are very nice too! I Look forward to seeing flowers of your -Oncidium Pacific Sunrise 'Hakalau' - Is your spike growing back into the hollow part of the leaf? if it is maybe you should try to gently push it back out.
Glad you got your power back!

Nenella the tip of the spike was stuck in the leaf so I spread the leaf apart and its free to grow now.
Thanks for your comments. Will post photo's when it gets ready to bloom.
