All that I have seen are grown mounted. Mine as you can see was mounted and it grew like crazy until I 'lost' it and it never got watered. I'm lucky to still have a tiny piece. I do think it's a lithiphyte as well as epiphyte in nature.

Frogparty, did you pick this up from Andy's Orchids at the flower and garden show? I had it in my hand as well...but somehow managed to exercise an inhuman amount of restraint and walked away empty-handed.

Dendrobium lichenastrum... these leaves are full size!!

[frogparty]

No I actually got it as a free division locally. Its just a tiny piece, but it has 2 new growths and some good looking new roots, so Im hopeful I can give it what it wants

Biophytum sp. Thanks Roxrgneiss


cool seed pod

[raimeiken]

OOOOOooo!! that plant looks sweett!

I want that plant in my viv. where did you get it?

[frogparty]

I traded Roxrgneiss for it. You want one? I have seeds and there are more seedlings popping up inthe viv now

[rollinkansas]

Those seeds shoot off so far, they were sprouting all over my humidity dome. One of my big plants died so I cut the head off, and now its growing back...pretty cool.

Mine started off great. Now the the new leaves are loosing their leaflets. Do you think it is too wet or too dry? Too humid, not humid enough?

[frogparty]

I don't know. The soil in there is soggy drainage layer too small, but it doesnt seem to care at all. It gets lots of light and the viv is pretty humid I really am not sure about what you need. Its the 1st one Ive grown

[phender]

Well that helps. I was afraid it might be too wet in my viv. Watering/spraying more is an easier fix than trying to get it drier.
