Help with Sophronitis Coccinea care UK
I have had a Sophronitis coccinea var rossiteriana for about 5 years now. When I got it, it had two leaves and two small roots. It now has lots of roots but still only 6 leaves and it has never flowered. I was told that it would be slow growing, but should it be this slow?
It is in a very small pot, grown in the little hydroponic pebbles, which is how I was advised to grow it. It gets a monthly feed with orchid food when it is growing actively. It lives on a shelf in the kitchen, which is south facing, so very sunny and humid, but not in full sun.
Can someone advise on how best to care for it? What am I doing wrong? Or do I just need to be more patient?
