Not a big show - but definitely alive
My tough little plant is willing to give me some blooms despite the neglect! Several leaves are coming up too - I won't try and rest it ever again!

WOOOO!!!
They do seem to be quite tough , I stuck a rootless keiki in some sphag not too long ago, and it now has new growth, and a keiki starting.
I do allow mine to be slightly drier in winter, but not allowed to remain dry for very long.

Yay, I finally got one!!! My order (with 4 TCs) arrived yesterday. OB is such a bad influence... Nice healthy plant, with 4 canes. The grower kept them staked, but I think I'm going to just let them hang naturally, if I can figure out how to keep the pot from toppling over. I'm going to do as you suggest, and just keep it slightly drier over the winter.
Do you find that it has a set blooming season, or does yours bloom a bit whenever?

Mine blooms spring-summer tho is blooming on a couple spikes now, and has buds on another. Where mine grows is complete shade this time of year thru spring - it's possible it might continue to bloom if it got a bit of sun still ...
It only started to bloom for several months the last couple of years.

Me too! Couldn't find it in Jakarta because apparently it is hard to grow and bloom in lowland Jakarta. In 2010 SGF I saw a Taiwanese nursery brought a bunch of them, kicking myself for not buying it
