Here's the answer to your gardening question...

You asked:

How can I get my Bamboo orchid to flower again?

Our Advice:

The Bamboo orchids (Dendrobiums) usually flower November and May, and they should be pruned straight after flowering. Older stems (which carried flowers) can be cut down low as new ones grow up to replace them. Repot when the pot is full of roots, but feed regularly. They prefer a temperature above 14c in winter and below 28c in summer.
