Thanks for all the advice. It is upstairs in my ‘cool’ room at best 50% humidity. I spritz or splash it daily along with my phrags. Light is combination of lights and east window. Time for a humidifier I guess. Was so excited with 2 spikes then the flowers never opened. Will add more...

Stunning. Mine blasted again this year. Had 2 spikes, never opened after months. Why? Why ? Why?

Does anyone recognize that name....everything but the 'star' part is clear on the tag which came from yard sale. its going to bloom, looks light in color. Merry Christmas!

I bought a red phrag in bloom; it had a rich color. I have rebloomed it under T5's and the color is much lighter. Does the color wash out when the buds are set, or if I pull it out from under the high light now, will later blooms be darker?

Tim, This comes from 'Isakoffs'. I did not know them but they were a member of the Delaware Orchid society, so east coast. It looks much paler today in the sun. I have attached a full pic. I am trying to find the listing of their plants; it might take until the next meeting. They had...

Will do. I got it in a grab basket from a greenhouse dispersal....no tag obviously. But put two spikes on so, an easy bloomer. I believe it is an old variety based on the age of the collector. Not much help, I know.

roth Absolutely beautiful pics. I have an old variety as a gift; would love some tips to bring it to bloom.
