Sedirea japonica spike
Sedirea japonica is a nice, small species, with beautiful fragrant flowers. I got this about 2.5 years ago in bloom and it hasn't bloomed since. It was potted in a small bark-perlite mix in a plastic pot. It limped along for awhile. I decided it wasn't liking its home and so moved it to a small basket with sphagnum, which it seems to like. I'll post the flowers when they open. I grow this indoors with my phals.

Thanks for the spike picture - I'm new to orchids and got a phal in Sept in full bloom, with one flower still left 5monts later on the spike. It's since put out 2 more leaves (total of 6) and a new spike. I wouldn't have known what the little knob was if it weren't for you!
