Can you get your flowers to last 2 weeks?

It depends on weather. If plant blooms in summer and temp is high, flower lasts only one week. In cooler period flower lives cca. 3 weeks.

Thanks. Large catts are growing in bark (18-25 mm orchiata), violaceas in smaller bark/seramis mix ( roots of violacea are easy to rot, seramis dries out quickly).
