A new addition from the orchid show this year. Threw out a big new cane over the last few months and the first of 6 flowers opened up today. What a beauty!

Very nice !!! Good growing and thanks for sharing. May I ask who the vendor was ? Also is that a Habenaria riadiata in your Avatar ? Also very nice. I managed to get a H. medusae and I killed it

Hi morphman,
Yes, my avatar is a Habenaria radiata; I've been trying to find this plant for a while but no luck! May I ask where you found H. medusae?

Very nice !!! Good growing and thanks for sharing. May I ask who the vendor was ? Plant was purchased from the fine folks of Forestview Gardens in BC. I usually buy half a dozen plants from them during the Toronto Orchid show in February. They've always got good stuff.

Yes I'm familiar with Forrest View and I've also bought from them a few times as indeed they always do have some goodies. I found the H. mudusae from a local grower here who also vends at shows. I'm not sure who he got it from but I can ask. I grew mine successfully for a while and I winterized it and got a bigger tuber but I overwatered too soon and killed it. At least that's my theory
