Miltonia Binotii Hybrid Orchid

[alaskan79]

I just got a Miltonia Binotii Hybrid Orchid from e-bay it has 4 spikes and I was wondering what is the best way to grow it. I live in Mich. Would it do ok outside on a covered porch with 1 to 2 hours morning sun. I see it likes to be kept moist but not wet. I have some Catts. and a couple Dens outside and they seem to like it. I also have a couple Cymbidium outside in mostly full half day morning sun.

You can treat Miltonia Binotii pretty much like your Catts in all seasons. Keep it just a little wetter, not soggy but not quite drying out before watering. And start it out in a slightly shadier spot while it gets used to your conditions before moving it to the full Catt light. It may be a bit more sensitive to low humidity too.

Thanks for the info I will give it early morning sun for a couple hours and slowly move it to more
