Thank you for the info by the way.

First, we're ALL still learning. That's what is so wonderful about orchids, the more you learn the more you find out about things that you don't know and want to learn.
For the Monnierara Millennium Magic, the blooming and impending dormancy actually go together. (While some of the Catasetinae bloom earlier in the season, many of them don't bloom until they're headed into dormancy) So no worries there, it's doing exactly what it normally does. You may well end up with flowers and no leaves at all. In fall shows, you'll see plenty of blooming Catasetinae with clipped leaves. Nature doesn't know or care about presentation at shows...
