Hi I think a lot was already mentioned by Lars and me. Can you be more precise on your questions? Do you intend to grow it mounted or potted, greenhouse or windowsill, what other plants do you have in your collections for comparison.

Hi Rob - I think most of my questions have been answered now! Is it preferable to grow it mounted or in a pot? Is it a suitable subject for a terrarium? Or too humid?

I'd say a terrarium is too humid.

Barkeria are mostly grown mounted. But potted is possible as long as you use a really course mix with lots of air. The roots are fairly thick and like to dry up.
