I have had this orchid since Sept. 2011. Had in various sites, at the moment in orchid house, with 70% shadecloth on top, but still not flowering. What am I doing wrong. Watering once a week, very hot here now, 28 - 30 deg. C. It is mounted on wood.

Not familiar with this one, I hope you get this answered, It looks like a big orchid.




does it require a rest period i wonder.

Mine grows mounted to a palm tree in almost full sun. It has new growths and vigorous root growth since I mounted it in the garden only about 3 mos ago. Has not flowered either.... maybe in the spring! The reddish coloration indicates that yours may have been in stronger light situation previously.

This is in the cattleya family...needs high heat and humidity.
