WOW!!!!That is beautiful, never saw one so plentiful. Tricia

Joe, amazing! How old is the phal.? How do you grow it? On the photo it seems a large portion of the plant, and roots, are out of the pot.
Please tell us more.

Holy smokes! My record is a paltry 20 or so. Fab!!!

Joe can u tell us how u uploaded your pictures to this site? Many of us seem to have a hard time, mainly confusion over the URL's and the link they ask for. I did it both ways and was able to view my pictures in the preview messages, but after submitting them, only the text appeared.I have mine in Photobucket too.

There are some notes over on the photo gallery that may be of some use and you could do a search for past posts about uploading images.

Flickr pro does (almost) all the work for you. Something like Photobucket should have similar facilities.

Thanks all, I've had this plant about 6 years. I grow in a grow room in my basement under HID MH 1000W light. The humidity is usually 45% and above. I also am a HEAVY FEEDER, 125ppm N for the first two waterings, Dyna-Gro Mag Pro for the third and tap water for the fourth. I water when the moss feels dry on top which varies with the seasons. The roots are up the side of the plant, I will post some better pix of the plant tomorrow.

Good afternoon, Some more info on Zuma Camreal. It is planted in a 7 inch orchid pot in sphagnum moss. The stem to the top leaves is 6 inches and the leaf span is 16 inches. The first photo here was taken today and there are 73 flowers and 8 buds remaining to open. The second photo shows the root growth outside the pot which is not uncommon for epiphyte orchids. These roots can be sprayed daily without wetting the moss, which I do when the plant is in spike and flower. Hope this info is helpful.

I'm as impressed with the 14 leaves as the # of flowers.
Nice growing...

WOW, I can only hope to follow in your steps one day. Gorgeous.
