Hi, thanks for the complement.

Im grow it outdoor under rain, and the direct sun hits the litle girl only by the early mornig, and the rest of the day the place stays well iluminated, and its also suitable to growing some mosses. What let me think thats an humidity level apropriated for some of my orchids.

Its mounted in a 5L plastic pot without any drainage at the bottom, and with a very moisty medium during the vegetative and flowering period. When the bulbs loose the leaves after flowering, its when the plant enter in the rest period, at this time its better to repot with new dry media.

I read somewhere thats a plant that when well cultivated, theyre pseudobulbs can reach 1 meter or more, and we can propagate her using one single bulb, when she reach the rest period.

maby some mistakes
