Epidendrum porpax in bloom

What a pretty little thing, Julie! My guess is that if you kept them inside all of the time, you wouldn't get that trigger that tells them all to start flowering. Whatever you're doing... keep doing it - and keep sharing those lovely blooms with us!

I begining to think so. They are starting to slow a bit. I've tried to slow watering on the ones that need a rest but, they shrivel so bad that I've decided to just keep the water coming and cut back on the food. I think as long as they get water they won't miss all that fertilizer.
