They are looking great!
oh and the Mingles you sent still has the same flowers open!
@RJSquirrel: I put my Masdevallia erinacea that has been hanging on for almost 2 years (down to four leaves out of the 40 it had) in one of the little fishbowl setups you use, and after a week it has 4 new roots (one from each leaf) and a new growth is forming! |

Thanks!
That's great! It seemed to be stating a new spike when I sent it - has that done anything?
Color will be better on new flowers, and more so even buds that develop in cooler temps.

Ya, ya, ya, you keep telling yourself that but Shannon is starting to rethink this one. That's what I was thinking about my Masde's but they are now starting to take up all of my kitchen window and the orchids that were there are having to find homes else where  who knew I would go so far into addiction  |

But- they're monopodial, so they grow upwards, rather than spreading outwards  |
