Since I put my jewel orchid in a small jar of live moss in a frosted front window, in an upside down clear cylinder vase, it has been very happy. It grew great big leaves and now looks like it is going to bloom!

I have heard that the flowers of jewel orchids aren’t very showy, the plants are prized more for their striking leaf pattern than for the floral display.

I may have to figure out how to get better pictures. Hm.
