    Default Phalaenopsis Equestris

    Finally successful on having good blooms on this specie. Potted in volcanic rock.

    same problem before "one at a time bloom". I solved it by repotting in volcanic rock then daily watering. it seems happy being watered daily but the medium I would say needs to quickly dry if not it will suffer rot.

    Nicely flowered!
    Btw, "equestris" should be written with a small "e", since its a species, or else it would referring to a hybrid.
