Laelia flava - potting

[G.Radka]

Hello!
I am a new on this board. I am coming from Poland. From 5 days days in my home lives a new plant - Laelia flava.
I have problems in potting this plant. There are differencies in describing. Is it a terrestrial, epiphytic or litophytic orchidea?
Could any body help me?

Glad to have you on board
It is a rupicolus lithophyte.
Here is a good place to start for cultural info - IOSPE - IOSPE PHOTOS
It has also been addressed in a past thread - Laelia flava Lindl.
and here is some more info on this species - Orchids of Brazil. Brazilian orchids
Again, Welcome

Thanks!
Voting in few forums said that Laelia flava is a litophytic orchidea.

It's rupicolus (meaning that it thrives among or inhabits rocks) lithophytic orchidea.
