Wonderful!

That first pictures looks unnatural on my screen, like a neon yellow. The photos on your blog look more natural colouring, more a bright lemon yellow.

The latest photo is the one with the poorest color. Must have been the lighting and I couldn't seem to correct it.

Wonderful!! I love the yellow coloring these have! The spots on the lip, are perfect! Great Growing! That is one happy Prom! One of my favorite Genuses... I love the silvery-green leaf color they have. And they grow like weeds too!

When do you repot yours? I saw on one of Marni Turkels eBay listings (had already sold), that she recommended to repot after the new p'bulbs had matured... Not when the new growths first started growing roots... What do you do? I repotted one of mine a couple months ago, that I think had been divided shortly before I bought it, & it had been sulking a little, & now that I've repotted it (a year after I bought it, & after it had finished flowering), I did it when the roots started to emerge from the new growths, of which there were/are 3-4, but it seems to be sulking yet again... I'm wondering if I got the timing of my repot off... ?

My other one needs a repot, because literally, it is busting at the seams. It has about 10 new growths (hasn't stopped growing since I got it a year or so ago...), and I'd like to not have to disturb it anymore than I have to... Thanks in advance

Thanks, Mary Linn, Tommy and Nikki. I think I repotted mine when the pseudobulbs were mature. This one does tend to ramble just a bit and my recollection is that I tucked all the growths into a new pot just before it produced spikes.
