January Blooms

I have a Oncidium 'Boso Sweet' that bloomed and when the flowers died off, I split the plant into three separate plants with 4 bulbs each.  A week or two later it seemed, one of the separate plants decided to grow another flower spike.

I also have a Oncidium twinkle 'Red Fire' that was blooming when I got it last January 17th and it decided to bloom again this January.  I love this one due to the coloring and how small the flowers are.

I also got my Jewel Orchid on January 17th last year and it decided to bloom again at the same time this year.  It is twice as big as before, its overflowing, and it just keeps growing.  I love the leaves and how tall the flower spikes by the time they are going to flower.

I also have a Dendrobium Love Memory 'Fizz" that just started opening it's flowers today but they haven't opened all the way.  I will update with better pictures of the new flowers and details about this one.

Masdevallia 'Angel Frost' Problems

I have a Masdevallia 'Angel Frost' that I got in March of this year.  I got it Colorado and brought it back home.


It flowered and did fine until about a month later when it started to loose all of its leaves and I had three leaves left.  I started putting it in a wine cooler at night (at 53 degrees F) and leaving it in a small greenhouse with about 70% to 90% humidity during the day and about 75 degrees.  It started to grow back one small leaf back but then the new growth died and two leaves fell off.




I am not sure what to do now and if I am doing everything right.
