Trichosalpinx chamelpanthes: an orchid question

digital_lass Mar 09, 2004 09:05 PM

Does anyone have experience with this orchid? I bought one recently because I really liked the foliage and the lady told me it would do well in my terrarium and grow fast. Here is the address to a picture of one:

Thanks if you are in the know and can pass it on!!

I don't have experience with this orchid, but the genus it belongs to is closely allied to the Pleurothallis genus. Those have done well for me thus far, and get misted for 1 minute each day. Right now, my Pleurothallis ornata is in bloom!
