For the last few years I've been lucky to get one or two blooms on these guys. The Prosthecia didn't bloom at all for two years. I sure wish I knew what I did different this time.
Prosthechia radiata, Phal. mannii

I believe that sometimes it is not what you do instead I think the plant just does it's own thing.

I agree with the others, the Phal. mannii is great. Congratulations on the new blooms.

Both gorgeous, but I love that mannii. Like Camille I have the 'Chocolate' version but might have to look for the standard as well.

I am fond with the Prosthechea. Yes, Kim, orchid growers have to be patient sometimes, but then the joy is even better.
