Put them in a morning sun position and see how they go next season.
Morning sun? I reckon I've tried midnight sun, midday sun evening sun,
shaded, part shaded,
wet dry even repotted.
Even had witches fly over them at full moon.
I can see why theyre so rare. People eventually give up....
Fussy beggars....
Now whats the REAL secret.
No guesses allowed.....

Where do you live? It just might have something to do with the problem ;-)

We used to keep them under the almond tree, where they got winter sun,
morning
sun in summer. My late wife used to repot them & feed them, and they did
very
well. But they haven't been repotted for 10 years, the possums have
killed the
almond, they don't get much water with the restrictions (we live in Melb)
and
they aren't doing too well.

Know damn all about orchids, but was told, no feed, minimum water, and
plenty of sun for two months before flowers due.
