Try feeding your plant with Super-thrive a few times a year it makes a big difference. Also I see some folks growing these plants in baskets hanging up out of the humidity you get when closer to the ground .All of mine have grown well when no more than 6-700 mm off the ground they seem to prefer this ,and I am sure that this is due to the higher humidity at those levels .

That plant is gorgeous. I imagine that the scent of all the blooms combines to overpower the area? Great growing.

This is one of my favorite Coelogynes, along with mooreana. The only thing that keeps me from growing them is the fact that they probably wouldn't do too well in warm temperatures.

Wow, what an amazing plant. Not sure how I missed this post originally, but I'm glad I saw it now.
