    Default Neostylis Lou Sneary first earned bloom

    I got this as a division Aug. 2008. It didn't improve while on straight sphag so I decided to mount it and wrapped the roots with sphag and just let it sit on a clay pot on a humidity tray.

    Thanks for looking

    Great job reblooming it Marissa.

    Mine's just sitting there in sphag too, maybe I'll go searching for some drift wood too
