Thanks!
I grow it on cork without sphagnum, plenty of light and watering every days, no rest period.

Hi Eddy, what about temperature range? I keep mine on west windowsill in Toronto; days 15-20C, nights 5-8C. I keep it watered once a week, letting it dry in between.

At this season, 30°c at day to 13.5°c at night.

max is 44°c in summer.

You're right to let it dry between watering, the root dislike to be wet too long.

In few days the second flower of the stem will be opened.
