Restrepia striata culture

[tbaenziger]

It's a cute plant, mounted on tree fern and gets a new leaf every three or four weeks. Had it since last October. Won't bloom. What to do?
Here's the background. I went to Indiana from Houston, Texas for business and took the time to go to Hoosier O., a marvelous place. When I explained my conditions and bought some great plants, including an extraordinary Aerangis splendida, they threw in this Restrepia for free! I refused, saying I couldn't grow it. Refusal on their part to take it away; I was stuck. "You can and will grow it", says my man. But, frustration, I can't get it to bloom. Help.
