That is cool Lienluu.

I wish my antenifera will get after it.

Another cool species from you!
Looks like a very healthy plant. Thanks for sharing, Lien!

A very nice and healthy plant, I am wondering how you can grow the thing! I have tried in all climate conditions, and they quickly wither and die. Telipogon, Trichoceras, along with the few Fernandezia I had, they all die together. I read on your last Peruvian Trichoceras that you keep them in a terrarium, and I had tried this once with a 10 gallon fish tank with Ludisia discolor, Goodyera, Macodes, and a few Cryptoperanthus Bromies. in there, with tons of terrarium moss, and the plants that died are the Telipogon and Trichoceras, never put a Fernandezia in there..... do you give your terrarium air circulation? Perhaps it is the wind chill factor that the plant needs, and not the actual dryness in the air..... great plant, I have never seen one that good, even in the wild.

Awesome Lienluu, that's one I surely want when it comes time for you to fade away into Africa. I just love the plant coloration and growth habit even more than the flower. You have to promise to give me tips on culture though.
