Andrew- I live in SoCal! I did place it outside, and it receives several hours of sunlight. I have been monitoring it making sure there are no burn marks, so far so good I'll post a picture as soon as I can!
NYCorchidman- it has 8 leaves. I have been watering every 5 or 7 days and purchased Orchid food mix from my local nursery. I believe it also has a backbulb, I'm not 100% sure, that I didn't remove because I didn't want to harm the orchid.
