    Beautiful flowers!

    Is it normal for p-bulbs on orchids to shrivel while it's in bloom? I was concerned about my Bllra but if it's natural then I'm probably over watering it!

    There are four spikes, with 4, 4, 3 and 2 buds. The last one appeared from a dry last year sheath.
    I will post pictures in full bloom, thank you!
