I live in South Florida. The cattlayea is in a clay orchid pot in orchid medium repotted about 2 months ago. I water every two to three days. I check for moisture by sticking my finger down the inside of pot so I'm careful about over watering. I haven't fertilized for about a month. It's outside. Gets about an hour of direct sumlight from 9:30 to 10:30am. The rest of the time it is with my other orchids and plants on a plant stand. It has good circulation and is outside on our deck under a veranda. The color of the leaves are a light green but the pseudobulbs have shrunk. This is my most expensive orchid and have had it for more than a year. It bloomed in April. All my other orchids are doing well. The Dendrobriums and Vandas are all blooming along with the Onicidium. This plant puzzles me.

Thanks, Nancy
