I'm not absolutely certain about their limits. At the moment, I'm tending to believe that they can handle having dry roots for relatively short time. These plants are sort of slightly 'succulent' too (only slightly). They don't have pseudobulbs obviously. So probably can't handle being without water for that long, especially in relatively dry places - unlike orchids with pseudobulbs.

I grow mine all in 100% scoria. Small pieces for relatively small plants. Larger pieces for relatively large plants. I water the media each morning.
