Is this a sick vanda?

Ok, so I purchased a Vanda from a sort of "rescue greenhouse" that inherited a breathtaking inventory of thousands of magnificent orchids and years later the plants are blooming in many cases, but...

Would you repot the cattleya now?

As you can see, there is almost zero media in the pot.

I just received this cattleya from an eBay merchant. It has almost no back in the pot. I water it twice a week and mist it one a day in between. Would you repot it now given that there is...

Keikis budding on D. Pierardii

Ok, so the D. Pierardii I received in the mail three weeks ago has at least two and maybe three keikis budding. I wasn't expecting them in early March. Should I be worried.

You're saying then that a den pierardii that looks like mine does now will not bloom this spring. Is there a reason I cannot mount it now and fertilize it in that case?
