Ah, room for more orchids! You have done an amazing job of "packing" to optimize space!

A question about Bulbophyllum polliculosum... Mine is in its second year in my possession. The culture notes that I received with the plant indicate that it should receive much less water, and no fertilizer, during its dormant (leafless) period. Mine gets some water, but less, and no fertilizer, in winter. Less severe than the "instructions" indicate but a bit of variation. It seems to be doing well - I have not had rot issues, I am hoping for it to rebloom. Does your arrangement allow for managing the leafless dormant period versus its growing time?

Everything is growing so well! The Den. cuthbertsonii are amazing. They love their refrigerator.
