Paph micranthum advice? Female
Default Paph micranthum advice?

I just got two small paphiopedilum micranthum. I know people here successfully grow them... any tips? They are potted in chunky mix, looks like bark and perlite and maybe something else, in the standard tall plastic pots that paphs are usually grown in. I'm considering 1) leaving them alone or 2) leaving one alone and potting one in a basket w/ lecca and moss or bark.

Also they seem to get dry really fast, is watering every day or every other day too much? I've read that they should never be dry?

They are on a windowsill where my other cool-intermediate paphs live, and I recently added some small fans so there is better air movement.
