The old project; Aerangis biloba and Phal. intermedia

I know several of you did this project. I didn't do so good with updates either. Do you still have yours?
Mine are alive. But they have not grown much. However, they don't get any special attention. They are in the original pots; no fert. ; and get hit with the hose along with everybody else.
Slow growers? Or is it just me and my neglect? The Aerangis is prone to brown spots. I have fans running. But it can still be hot, humid, etc. And actually dry and hot of late.

I'll hve to take pictures, mine are still doing well, but I think you are right in that they are slow growers, especially the biloba. I had 2 of them one mounted the other potted and while I know they have grown, it is very slow going. My intermedia is hanging in there, lost a bottom leaf but size wise has grown, but no spike as yet. I just repotted it recently and rootsa ar looking good, so maybe jut not ready yet.

My phal is doing good now... It was in spike for a while but I cut it off for the health of the plant; the roots were suffering; will post some pics as well..
