Restrepia in a jar?
Is there any type of Restrepia that anyone can think of which would grow well as a dorm room houseplant in the right conditions? From what I'm reading, as long as they have light, moisture, and relatively cool temperatures, they're happy. I like the promise of an orchid that grows year-round.
I wouldn't seal one in a jar, of course, but would a large vase or open-topped jar work out? Maybe a big one of those candle-holder globes that people put minis in? Something to keep the humidity high. I wouldn't plant it in the base of the jar, I'd mount it on something and put some moss below it to help keep humidity up.
