Ron, this is not a big plant, I've got Ascocendas bigger. By the time it gets too big to handle for mysetup I don't think I'll be too worry about, will be too old.
Plants like Ang. Veitchii which I've had and currently have an eburneum pup off the big plant I sold recently are bigger than this plant and aren't flowering size yet.
The Veitchii I had and sold was in 12 inch tube, was near 3 feet tall and 5 feet wide with 4 pup coming WAS too big. The bloke I sold it to put it in a bigger tub and let it grow. If you are aware of the good old Australian Utility, he needed the the whole ute tub space to cart it to shows.

Wow, you can really see why it is called "The Star of Bethlehem" orchid.
Sure hope mine blooms this year. I'm hoping for a December show!

Fantastic. How big is the bloom? And did you get a whiff of it at night?

Thanks for showing this!! I've been wondering whether the roots in mine are ok, but now I see they are perfectly fine. I've also been wondering about the weird sheen on the leaves--and now I know my plant is ok!!

Great growing!
