    Great pic! not an easy one for me to capture with my equipt. I should check mine for sign of spiking. Jon how are you culturing yours. Does yours go totally leafless. One of mine does the other doesn't.

    Thanks folks.

    This one is generally easily confused with lemniscatoides. Lemniscatum has wrinkled pseudobulbs, while lemniscatoides does not. Also, lemniscatum has more brown in the color, and a slightly different structure (I cannot remember the differences precisely).

    This grows in brightish light, it always dries out after watering, and it's in intermediate temps.

    Full plant shot, please. And from now on, please post full plant shots so I won't have to ask.
    Thank you.

    Beautiful close-up, Jon.
