Me too. I've had one for several years that grows and grows but just won't
bloom. Someone told me that its from the Amazon so its a bit warmer grower
than many of the other catts, and so it might not like how low I let my gh
get in the winter (55F).

Gary, how do you grow yours?

I keep it at 60F min in winter and more shade and moisture than most catts.
I have it growing with the Phals.

Isn't that the greatest shape? Congrats on blooming it out, Gary.

Yeah, I found the Baker's culture sheet and they say the same thing about
phals temps. I found a picture story Greg Allikas wrote, showing them in
bloom along a river in Brazil...or was it Venezuela.. argh. My mind's a
sieve. Anyway the flowers were very cool-looking sitting on limbs above the
stream.
