It's the third weekend in the new place and the water here has way more total dissolved solids (TDS) than my last location, so I've got to deal with that.
Otherwise, there are still buds and blooms on the way, and everything seems to be adjusting to the new space.

19 January 2025 • Cattleya growth tour Clowesia Rebecca Northen 'Grapefruit Pink' and 'Mikabi' are in bloom, as are Masdevallia Machu Picchu 'Crownpoint' and Cattleya trianaei 'Cashen's'. Dendrochilum tenellum is next up with lots of little spikes, and we should see something from Rhyncholaelia Aristocrat as soon as well.
