Started 3 years ago…

Started 3 years ago with a small order from Japan. After mistakes, light changes, pot experiments and some reading this is the current state of my small collection 🥹

Growing under AC Infinity IONBOARD S22 at 40% and as a fertilizer I use MSU Orchid Food - RO/Rain/Tap Water.

Any tips and tricks appreciated. Also looking for suggestions for a ‘final’ (I know I’m lying…) free spot on the left.

What Neofinetia falcata variety is that?

Hi everyone,

I’m rather new to the whole world of Neofinetia falcata, so please excuse me if my question is stupid.

Last year, before I started digging deeper into the Neofinetia falcata collecting I’ve bought this Neofinetia falcata at the orchid shop in my region where I have almost all my other orchids from.

At the WOC 2026 in Dresden I’ve had my first real encounter with the varieties of this plant and I’ve bought two more (seikai and kokakuden), but the one I have looks nothing like any of them.

Is there a possibility to determine which variety my first plant is? I don’t have any pictures of how the flower looks like as I haven’t seen it bloom yet… maybe someone experienced can help me 😅

Thank you for your time and help!
