and now, for all of you who has not yet seen (or I maybe should say: smelled) this species in bloom... one single flower is fragrant (like coconut oil... or lik ethe old "Cooper Tone") enough to be smelled from every corner of a 25 sqm greenhouse looking forward in the future when it bloom with more than 10 flowers at once....

I've been following this thread since I too got a Maxillaria. Mine has gotten huge and I mean 3 times the size of when I got it. It's in a 6 inch pot and still hasn't bloomed. Lots of growths but no blooms. What's your trick Ramon??

I would just wait. Earlier in the thread (back when I thought that I had blooms) Jeff mentioned that these can spike up to early summer. So there's plenty of time left to see some spikes!

I picked up one of these plants just two weeks ago, and I JUST finished reading all 66 pages of tips and advice in this thread I can't wait to see how mine grows!
