Dipl. chrysotropsis, Stelis barbata, Tolumnia variegata
 
5 Attachment(s)
All blooming now! First time for the dipl., has an odd flower compared to others I've seen. The lateral sepals are all wacky. Lot's of new growth as well.
Try to count the Stelis spikes!
The Tolumnia is beautiful, love this plant. Easy, fast grower, put out 4 spikes on 6-7 growths. Not too shabby!
Just brought them in, many got hail damage a few weeks back.....Why do storms always roll through at 3:00 AM?

Gorgeous! I especially love the tolumnia. I have one but it's not spiking for me yet.

Really cool, love the delicate flowers of the Stelis.

Update: The Stelis is continually amazing me. there are 6-8 more spikes now, what a plant! It has also doubled in size in the past year. Awesome!

spike help?
 
Any tips for encouraging spiking? I have a happy healthy Stelis Superbiens thats stubornly not blooming. Thoughts?

It gets indoor, indirect light in bright room, watered 1-2 times per week (dry slightly between), fertilized weekly, and temps between 55 night and 65 day. Thoughts?
