New growths = blooms. I wish that my older growths would sprout new shoots!

Don't give up hope! Mine was clearly on the 'just one growth per season' trajectory, looking at the line of pseudobulbs but...now...a couple of the older bulbs are getting busy! I was concerned as it sort of stopped after blooming last winter. It took an eight month break! I have read about this little guy but still don't know what I am doing, exactly. I don't know if having it bloom last winter was just dumb luck or if it actually likes my culture. I do hope your little orchid gets settled and begins going crazy, too. :)
How are all the other cernuas doing?

I gave mine away to my friend (it wasn't a Phal or Paph, so I didn't have any patience with it). In her care, it got three new growths last summer, but she kept it too dry, so the spike it had, wilted. This year; three new growths, and three spikes with a total of 13-15 buds (don't remember the number at the moment).

When it flowers, I'll kidnap it and take pictures of it and share with the rest of you. I'm so happy she could provide a good home for it and that they both like each other. :biggrin:

I almost gave mine away because it isn't fragrant but I guess I have come to be fond of it.

Mine grew two new punks and leaves this year and had some crazy root growth, but no blooms to speak of.

Long time no see but I finally got two blooms on this guy. Even the wife said that it was cute.

Beautiful! I transplanted mine to a terrarium which is also a Fairy Garden. I was so thrilled that it bloomed again and was so pretty!

That is an incredible number of flowers! Is that all from one pseudobulb or more than one?
My three new pseudobulbs are still growing...no idea if there will be flowers, yet. :|
