I thought about buying one of those at the NYC Orcid Show but the person standing in for the vendor wasn't too sure about the conditions under which to grow it. So what conditions are you growing it? You've done such a good job raising it , hopefully I'll be able to .

Thanks for the comments .
It is hanging where it recieves bright light , among the Ascocendas , but not hot direct , it has fairly thin leaves, .Fert. with the rest of them . I had to take the top pieces off the basket because of the spikes comming out from the base of the bulbs . I does have a scent . Gin

Nice Gongora, Gin! The 3rd pic (showing the spikes coming out from the base of pbulbs) shows lots of roots, your orchid is healthy & happy! Congrats!
