christensonia vietnamica
I had almost given up on this prima donna. I got it as a seedling 3 years ago, and it's a slow grower for me (it's still only about 10cm. big, although it has a side shoot!). It needs high humidity and warm to hot temps, high light and a good airflow. I grow it in a vase, with some moist leca pellets on the bottom, and in a warm terrarium.

Gorgeous blooms! Love the spur!
I'm also waiting for mine to bloom, think I'll try to give it more warmth and brighter light. Seems like I've been waiting forever. Prima Donna is right!

I tried to get some decent pictures of the whole plant, but I'm not sure I succeeded. Hope they help in evaluating your own plants.
