i water mine everyday cause its living atop my substrate of my bulb. frostii. I can wait 3 days without water, depending on how much i water at one time. I just like to keep it moist for the mosses, and everything else seems to do fine when its consistently moist. I also have a ghost orchid ontop of that substrate too, had 2 but i turned the pot sideways and never found it. Im mad at myself, but once i get my paludarium up and going, im going to reorder a group of them, and then they will really be able to take off, because i can give it an exact culture.

Cool plant, Snip! This is probably a dumb question, but does it have leaves at any point in time?

yeah, each bulb should have a leaf, but they usually get knocked off, or shrivel up and die off. Theres a leaf scar on every bulb. Im not sure if this is supposed to be a 'leafless' orchid or not. The leaves may just be used during the bulbs growth then die off after it matures?
