I have a Coel bilamellata that was divided in April, still not so much as a new shoot or root and the half-mature growths it had have stopped growing. I bought a pure white cristata division about a year ago, it has just started to grow. Also about a year ago I bought a Coel ocracea that was posted to me bare root. I potted it up and it proceded to regress (bulbs shriveling, leaves dying, no growth) for about a year until just about 2 weeks ago when I noticed new growths coming. So once you pot them up be patient.

So I need to be patient... Hmm... Yes! Orchids really have slow reactions!
