Your Lepanthopsis astrophora is gorgeous, very nice size. I would like to ask you if you ever remove old spikes? My plant is doing very well, growing a lot and always blooming. There are a lot of old spikes that have continued to bloom but there are quite a few that have not rebloomed.
I've noticed recently that new spikes seem to get caught in the canopy of older spikes which causes the newer spikes to droop to the lower part of the plant. My astrophora is potted in moss and grows in a large glass globe. I'm tempted to cut off some older spikes, do you remove them? I don't notice many bare spikes on your plant.
