Really? Interesting. There are quite a few people using it 'undiluted' for
Cymbidiums here in California. No ill effects as far as I've heard.

Everyone knows that Stanhopea flower spikes emerge sideways
or downward. But we have a plant labeled S. jenischiana with
Stanhopea-like leaves and pseudobulbs, with a 2-foot-high
vertical inflorescence with about 5 pink-to-red (not yellow)
flowers. Does anyone have ideas?
