This one is wonderful, blooms twice a year. It's my other Cambria....the one that smells nice that won't bloom. Next to this one, gets treated the same but nothing...no blooms.

The trouble with "Cambria" is that they're intergeneric hybrids Alex. So despite sharing the same name, their requirements can be very different.

Hm, wonder what it needs? I will keep trying until I get a flower. Google time.

You'll need to know the parents Alex.

The lower reaches of this page may be of help...............

Beautiful! This is one of the most commonly sold (type) orchids here in California. I wish they had a scent!
