    Fortunately these are from the main growth. The other 2 are from a very small new lead, wouldn't expect much anyway. To the right of the pot, can you see a green line with little bumps on it ?? Thats a LONG spike on Aer. maculosa. What length you reckon ?

    Zain, your a good guesser, the maculosa spike is currently 685mm or 2 feet 2 3/4inches long with one branch.

    Oh, I like these! Doubt if I could grow them without a greenhouse.

    This is such a great place to find more orchids to add to my wish list!!
