Jewel orchid
Here is the orchid. It's at the bottom. I have three in there. They're just shy.

Kudos
It's easy to own an orchid, but kudos to you for getting one to flower!!! HOw did you connect the pc fan? Did it have a plug attached?

lighting
Due to the weird shape of the hood of my terrarium, I am using this lighting I found on EBAY. If it works, great, if not, it was cheap and not that big a deal, but it should fit and be totally hidden without creating any real heat issues.

small pc fan and a 12V adapter from princes auto and you just cut the ends off and wire them together..
i was looking at thoughs lights too but for a fuge for my fishtank... for a display it might be better to go with the all white light, better green look you know.. if you do end up getting it let us know how it is.. i wouldnt mind picking one up.

Wow
Those white orchids are beautiufl. I think I paid 25 bucks for the orchid. There were three in the pot. I went with the red/blue for growing and will have four tiny white spot lights for regular viewing. I thought the red/blue was more full spectrum. If the whites do the same thing, I might switch over to that later. I'll take photos when I have it up and running. I should receive the lights in about a week.
I love creating artful, mini landscapes.

Latin
Delphinus, I'll look to you to help me keep track of what's in my terrarium. I'm bad at names.
