Don't worry, Suzie! We, orchid lovers, have this poet vein otherwise we wouldn't be orchid lovers!!!
Mine are planted in clay pots using sphagnum moss mixed with 30% of small Styrofoam peanuts, just the same way I grow my other laelias. I use Styrofoam peanuts to avoid compactation and facilitate drainage. I water them almost every other day from October until April, the hot months here in the southern hemisphere , slowing down to one/two times a week during the cold months (may through September).
