    Default Miltassia Dark Star wilting

    Hello, newbie here!

    Back in April, I bought one of those Dark Star beauties. I'd previously had a Phal that had grown very happy with daily misting and weekly drenching. The guy at the orchid store said the Dark Star works pretty much the same, so that's what I've been doing. He also said it can stay in its pot, so I left it there...but repotted recently since it didn't seem to be growing very well. I used an orchid potting mix from a hardware store. I keep it in my office; not under a window (that also worked for Phal before)

    However, it's not rebloomed since its initial bloom and it's looking less and less happy

    I wonder if I'm watering it too much? Is Miltassia care much different from Phal? I couldn't find much information online; mostly people posting pictures of happy ones.
