My Cathy Beck has a new little growth!

My Den Cathy Beck has a little light green pencil tip-shaped new growth peeking out of the pot next to the other pseudobulbs! It wasn't there last week. Yay! I'll try to get a pic. soon-

I'm just making sure she has plenty of light, and water each day so she doesn't get too dried out- I have low humidity. It's the really tiny growth between the pseudobulbs. The pot is the same size that it came in- I just repotted it with Schultz's mix with a tiny bit of sphagnum added to help retain a little moisture.

I'm soo happy! My Cathy Beck's new growth is doing well. I re-potted her again in the same sized pot, but round!!! I wanted to put her in a special pot that wouldn't take a square pot that size. I still mist her every morning, and have her in full (Halfmoon, NY) light. She's doing o.k.-

Thanks, Jenny- It's a pot that I've had since 1974...!! I love strange pots! I don't like them to overtake the plant... but it's fun to use unusual pots for different plants! It sets off their personalities!! Take care...

Great pictures! I'm really pleased to see what mine should eventually look like.

It's soooooooo cute! I have to run upstairs and check mine, but Solay has a little trick that might help us all! (I love this idea) I guess it is a new version of talking to your plants--I'm not sure what the reasoning is behind this, but I still think it is a fabulous plan You'll understand,Patti--she blows on her plants. Is that a great idea or what

Hi, Jirel...- Thanks! I'm really happy with the leaf-growth, also! I think it's the pot! (or maybe 'cause I'm blowing on them! )
Either way, I'm pleased with the growth!
Actually, I think it's the Hlalfmoon, NY sun, combined with the wormtea!

I too, talk to my plants, (blow on them,Solay!!), and just think they're great!... They seem to understand, and respond!
