Default Pale blooms on Wedding Promenade

I bought a Wedding Promenade in Dec and it has done great. Blooming since I bought it, but I looked at pictures from when I first got it and the current blooms are much paler. Cause? It's in a Southern window, but off to the side so it receives the late afternoon sun. I fertilize weekly, weakly. It sure looks happy enough, I'm just curious why the blooms are not as vivid. Any suggestions. thanks

Maybe just getting a bit tired?

Try bumping up the fertilizer or better yet use MSU fertilizer. . .it's good for the whole plant, not just the blooms.

How's your potting mix? Is it breaking down? Orchids need really good air circulation around their roots.

Roots OK?

And keep your humidity up at least 50-60% if you can.

I am sure the others will chime in too. . .but one thing they're gonna say is: Where are the pictures? It helps everyone, help you!

I added the current picture of my pale orchid to the galley yesterday, it's too big to put in this response. It's posted by Maree. Please view there and if you have any more suggestions I would love to hear. Thanks much
