It will be interesting to see. Orchids vary so much in how long they bloom. My reed stemmed epi bloomed a year and a half in s/h.

It did bloom sequentially, but also kept adding flowers to the top of each spike constantly, and when a spike would finish a new one would pop out at the side. I never had much luck with them before s/h. I'm wondering how this gorgeous vitellina would do growing this way.

Good luck with it. I can see that it has a different growth habit than my epis do.
