I grow my charlesworthii under lights and most do fine, but some of my plants seem to be very intolerant of old mix. Whenever one seems "stuck" and not growing, repotting seems to help.

 

[SlipperFan]

That is very impressive.

Those are great big petal/sepal elements. Very nice!!!

 

[raymond]

[SlipperKing]

That is very impressive.

I agree!

 

[Ross]

I agree!

I now have two nice charlesworthii from this same cross. I got them as mature, unbloomed seedlings from Orchids, Ltd. They still had some as of last month.
