Some plants are just plain primadonnas. I bloom most of my Vandaceous well, with many plants blooming 2-3 times a year, yet I have one Vanda Wirat, that bloomed in 2003, and then for the second time this year, as well as an Ascocenda Yip Sum Wah 'Flame' FCC/AOS, which I have had at least 8 years, and it has never bloomed.
However, I am more stubborn than they are!
