Lost with new reedstem Epidendrum purchase!

[aqualady]

So I just made my weekly trip to the grocery store, and I saw an unusual orchid that I couldn't leave behind! The generic tag just said "Epidendrum," but I'm wondering about the care for this orchid. I've never heard or seen of one like it, so naturally, I had to take it home with me!

When I got home and did some research, I was a little nervous because it seems like they need a lot of light, and I don't know if I'll be able to provide enough with my North facing window. I did, however, read about them doing well outdoors, so that is my plan B. I had a Dendrobium last year that didn't survive (I think because of the low light), so I'm hoping this one will not have the same fate.

Any growing advice would be appreciated... it's a large plant (at least 3ft tall), and it seems to be in good condition with lots of strong roots. Sorry for the blurry pictures...
