Blooming size plant. I can grow it but can't bloom it so time to send it on its way. Has some sun burned spots.

For trade. Mini's prefered -- especially bright reds & oranges. Mini species would be awesome. But the right compacts might do....go ahead & tempt me.

Contiguous U.S. only.

Paul -
I have been reading about these and don't give up the ship yet!
The reasons why it doesn't bloom is due to
Insufficient light
Insufficient food and water - use "Granny's Bloomers' (1-6-5) to fertilize
Too much nitrogen (the above is low nitro)
Container crowding (time to repot)


(Thanks Ray from First Rays Orchids for the information)

Just passing on something I am going to try with mine!

Thanks, Dorothy! But I've already found a new home for it.
