how to fertilize orchids

Everyone wants their Orchids to bloom, to come back year after year. There are certain orchids that bloom once and that's it but there are many Orchids that will bloom more frequently. Papyopetalum is one that blooms more often. If cut at a node it will re-sprout and bloom again and last for weeks at a time. Oftentimes it will bloom twice a year. Don't be upset if it doesn't bloom continuously. The plant needs to rest, to go into a period of dormancy to recapture its' bloom.
