Fantastic! I love this species, great growing

Wow Its tiny. Was it planted on plain hydroton or was it just top dressing? I always see brachies top dressed with either limestone chips, stone or some kind of rock. What is the reasoning behind this?

 

[poozcard]

Stone topping is just for make the plant tight while watering
Otherwise, the new roots will be damaged

 

[eggshells]

Thanks, That makes sense.

The fingernail is a pretty good indicator, also.

Very nice! Based on your photos, I have a few that might be flowering size by the fall. What a neat little species.

 

[NYEric]

That's a great set of photos! I wish mine would bloom.

 

[Paphman910]

From the looks of it the flowers are about 25mm in size since the coin is about 20mm in diameter!
