    Cool growing miniature from Ecuador! I grow this one at around 65F day temps and drop it down to about 55F at night. Seems to be forming kind of a bush-like plant.

    Nice and elegant flower. But what is it mounted on?

    I started growing them on plastic! I figured you can grow orchids in plastic pots so why not plastic mounts! It has the advantage of not damaging the roots when I take them off the mount. :)

    Really nice! The flowers seem huge for the size of the plant. Mine grows and grows but still no flowers yet.
