Bob, I have a mature Den. forbesii that blooms for me every year. The plant is about 14" tall with about a dozen pseudobulbs. It grows in a mostly north facing bay window here in SF. The building is slightly skewed off of due north, so in the summer I get about an hour of direct sun in the morning and afternoon. Temps are in the cool to intermediate range and I water it fairly frequently, although it does dry out from time to time.
Given your plant's size of 4 inches I would suspect you're still in the seedling stage and it's got a few more inches of growth before it will flower. Good luck! -Eric in SF www.orchidphotos.org -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Anti-Virus.
