Mine just refuses to bloom. All my other Bulbo-types bloom like crazy with no special care; not this one. Just stubbornly puts out leaves.  Any tips/secrets to share?

Stephen,
I have the same problem. I have had a plant now for about 6 years and I grow it with all my other Bulbophyllums which flower but my sik sikkimense  So I too would like some cultural tips.
I am fascinated by your pseudonym. Are you an expat?

Not an expat exactly, but I lived in Cape Town for 12 terrific years, and have South African residence. Still miss it, every day!
