  2. Great plants and great photographs!
    The unlabeled intergeneric is probably Odontonia Papageno 'Mi Amour' or one of the other Odontonia Papageno cultivars.

    1. That's a really good guess. I looked so long for the tag, because I really liked those flowers, but couldn't find anything in the vicinity.

  4. how do you get a Odontoglossum catatante 'Kilauea Karma' to re-bloom? It was given as a gift to us in full bloom about 1-1/2 years ago. It has not bloomed since, no spikes or otherwise any sort of flowers at all. It is feed with liquid orchid food every 2 wks, in a bright lite window, mild temperatures day and night, no direct sun, in side house. Thanks for suggestions, Mike in Gilroy California 1-26-2015

    1. Mine needs higher light than my cattleyas. I would try gradually increasing the light exposure. Mine are in a bright south window with an added 14 hours of grow light and are reblooming a year after I received it. It was at the end of it's bloom cycle when I received it.
