# I’ve had this newish Epicattelya Rene Marques but I was uncertain it…

_Posted by Jen on 2025-11-17_

I’ve had this newish Epicattelya Rene Marques but I was uncertain it would survive as it was a bit of a rescue. Despite some dehydration, and pleating of a few leaves, it bounced back and grew more than I expected it to. So much so, that I have 2…sheaths (?) shown in the photo, but I’m not sure as these are pretty new types for me. I realize because of the set back, they may not actually bloom- but it’s moving in the right direction. Any experience with this orchid, particularly about the blooming process and what I might expect would be awesome. Thanks pals!
