My project Enc. is doing something!

Finally, after sitting there looking cute for weeks, there's new growth starting! It's about time! It's the itty bitty thing at the bottom of the pseudobulb!

That is the way they start and usually grow rather fast from that point. Almost every new growth will flower next April-May.

They will flower next spring and have a great fragrance but what they will look like in three years ----

I have a number of 6 and 8 inch pots of encyclia, not this one, that are a knockout. Encyclia grow to specimum plants easily.

Thanks, Solay, I can't wait either. This project idea was a good one. I got plants that I normally wouldn't have, but I now love!

I mounted mine. (Log in a Pot)..and got a quick reaction...maybe it was the lack of water.

Anyway, this plant might be way to big for my lil branch...lol oh oh.

Wow!!! The original pseudo stayed nice and plump. What do you do for it again? When I mounted mine, the original psbulb shriveled a bit, but the roots and growth is kicking butt.
