In an attempt to add to my Neofinetia collection, I placed an order for a few that were quite pricey because of their variagtion and markings in their foliage. Unfortunately, they arrived very weak, and quite frankly, should never have been sold. However, they are remarkable orchids, because after a year and a half of no successful progress, they are still trying to survive. So, in an attempt to help their efforts along, I have switched them to the semi hydro set up. Lets see how they are doing 4 weeks later. Thank you very much for watching!! If you grow these beauties... leave me a comment and let me know what your set up is. Does sphagnum moss work for you? It didn't for me with these candidates.
