Today's Ecuagenera Pick Up

Good luck! Hope the little guy pulls thru!

Yea, good luck with this little one! I hope it pulls thru for you! I've heard that the telipogoniflora is very very sensitive to its environment... I've even heard that if it was moved outside a glass (like a "bell" or terrarium), that it would sulk for awhile, and struggle a little, or a lot... They are apparently VERY sensitive plants! Which is why I haven't ventured to try one yet...

Two of my favorite miniatures and the Lepanthes should make it with some TLC. They're amazingly tough plants.

Sorry to hear about your plant. That's a bummer in any case and a tragedy when it's a plant high on the wishlist.

You have very different orchids than I do. Nothing wrong in that, it's just amazing to see the diversity and how many different directions collections can take!

I'm sure we've got one or two plants in common if we compare notes as well, but one thing for sure... If there is ONE place that I would like to order orchids from, it is Eucagenera. My goddess! Their online catalog can make anybody drool and hyper-ventilate.

Thanks Island Girl. Will see, it is on Hygrolon and it won't be moved anywhere. Since it is inside the vase, it has pretty much stable environment, no changes, it has air movement, humidity, it will never dry out, so it is all up to the little guy:-) I'll keep you posted.

Thank you Silje, yes, I have very diverse collection, I just got whatever I like and whatever can grow in my zone outside, but mini's are the only plants that are mostly kept inside the apartment, either on Hygrolon or in the mini orchid terrarium. S far all the mini's seems to love it, they do grow and they bloom. Will see if this one will make it:-) Did you see my whole list, I actually did finish the list just this week and posted here:-) Maybe we have more than 2 in common:-) And as I said, this is not a complain about Ecuagenera in any way, Ivan was extremely nice, did not even charge me for this barely hanging guy and promised to bring another one next show. They do have great prices, and I do understand that sometimes plants just don't make international trip, nothing you can do about it:-)))
