Sandy--Thanks..

I admit, because it is so root-bound--that it has gone dry for most of the Summer.

The fronds on this Epi are SOOOO long! It will be hard to re-pot....Would you suggest I jump from this tiny 5"-6" pot to a 10" HB?

I have had another Epi--as old as this one. Slightly different leaves--a bit more triangular.
It has NEVER bloomed yet!

THEN--I have an Epi Oxy--all the same age. it is pretty huge and I HATE those long, stick-like stems it grows 4' in the air!!! I end up cutting them off.
t is in a big enough pot--but I really do not know what to do with it! It has never bloomed either.....
Maybe it needs better light? I have kept it in a fairly bright shade all these years.

This was "IT" this Summer....Here is the whole plant.....
