They are really awesome !! I have a marsupialis, but it has never flowered for me, any special pointers for its culture?

Hi Amey thanks I also got marsupialis blooming once for me than no more till now, for suavis the requirement almost similar like Coelogyne pandurata, they need light level between 50 to 70% and humidity around 60 to 80%, once the pseudobulb mature few spikes may arise from the base of the bulb.Hope give you some idea.

Thanks Zainal, I think light is the problem with mine. Once I put them in high light (which unfortunately also means high temperature in my greenhouse) anf the foliage yellowed, so I put it in a shady spot, and it has stayed there, may be I can increase the light a little at a time.
