I too am really curious... I have a Den. superbum and a Den. Nobile hybrid (which has never flowered since I got it). This is my first year for the Den. superbum, but I asked the grower that I got it from (in Kissimmee area) and another grower and they both disagreed with the Winter rest/drying period. They both said that where they come from does not stop raining completely and that they still get water in nature. They told me to reduce water and fertilizer, but not to stop it all together or be so drastic that I see alot of shriveling in the pbulbs. I am only repeating what I was told here. I still haven't decided what I am going to do with them, but they both are still growing so I guess nothing yet. My catasetum (or clowesia, not sure which is correct) just produced two new growths in the past couple weeks, so I can't stop watering it yet either. I am so confused!!!
