    This is a first-bloom seedling for me. I've found the schoenorchis quite tolerant of conditions in my apartment and easy to care for (even before I got a humidifier). I spray this plant every day when it's actively growing, every other or so when not.

    When these get large they really make impressive specimens with their sprays of small flowers. The flowers also have a pleasant scent - I'm not great at describing smells, but I'd describe it as a kind of berry scent.

    Nice. Mine is about the same size/age as yours and blooming about the same, too. I really enjoy it.
