One bloom ! have had the plant for about 3 years , Not sure if it is all the way open but thought I better take the picture or would find the flower on the floor . Might bloom better next year if I don't forget to not water / Fert. it ;)

It's so tiny and cute! Just how senile is it? :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Gin, do you keep your minis in a terrarium or on other plants? I don't know if I've asked you before.

Way to go, Gin!!! :banana: (/udb) :banana:

Everybody I know of that has this little guy is always in "waiting for it to bloom" mode...except for you ;)

Well done :bowing

Gin! Well done! I think you are the only one of us that has been able to get this one to flower!! I'm still waiting....

Share your secrets!! Temps? How dry? Spill the beans!

Way to go Gin! Mine has two spikes in bud. Who knows if they'll both produce though. I almost hate to even announce the buds out of superstition. I really hope for blossoms. Did your's go totally dormant like mine did?

Very nice! The plant alone--even without the blooms--looks quite attractive. Something rather conversational about those fuzzy pseudobulbs. And the flower is beautiful. Well done!

Bet ya don't Gregg mine forget to bloom :) I read a lot about the senile several things did not agree . I messed up and did not keep it dry enough oops ! At one point it was losing leaves , I had a senile moment and watered it ..
Ross be sure and post a picture of you know who . Won't type the name and jinx them .
I grew it bright, cool and supposed to be dry :( in the Fall/winter , Spring summer, water , more shade . Don't know if that is right or not ...Gin
