Default cultural help for C. nobilior

I'm getting ready to try my hand with a couple of seedlings of Cattleya nobilior and would like to request some cultural advice from those of you who have success with this species. Can I grow it like C. walkeriana, or does it require different temperatures, light and watering needs? I basically allow give my walkerianas warm/hot summers where they get lots of water and good amounts of light (same light levels as C. leopoldii and C. amethystoglossa), along with high humidity. In the winter they get intermediate day temperatures, cool nights and limited amounts of water (in other words, they are allowed to dry out, and remain dry for a week or ten days, between waterings); light levels are also increased during the winter (when nature cooperates). Any advice I can get for C. nobilior (especially if its care differs significantly from walkeriana's needs) will be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Steve
