Old tubers will not re-flower.
Understood - getting new korms, but they're not blooming. I'm hoping for bloomin' korms mate.

I had some early success but nothing new in the past year - growth, new korms that spear, then nada.
Ah, that's the word I couldn't remember. I had a feeling that you knew about all this stuff already. :roll:

So, how about some guano, and a fine mist spray of water mornings and evenings. In this part of the world, orchids should know how to do this on their own, surely.

btw, just wondering whether you plan to use the orchid as some kind of herb?

Nah, but a couple of cockroaches make the journey from the top of the electronic cockroach deterrent to my orchids and eat the new shoot.

If you know a lot, know enough to make them respect you, if you are stupid, be stupid enough so they can pity you.
