Yes, when it's too cold (10C - 05C day tem.) I don't water any of my orchids.Twice last year we had snow here in Athens.Some orchids was under a plastic cover,other as this one here, was without any protection.It loves full sun in winter.


I don't suggest anything to anyone,I just share my personal experience. The climate of Greece is a key factor and nobody can say this is a rule for growing this species e.t.c. as the climate is so different between U.S.A. France,Greece or any other country.

Thank you all for your positive feedback.

Thanks for sharing the pictures, including the update and giving us your tips. I bought one last month and I absolutely adore it! It is so small and cute! I don't have blooms so I really loved seeing the pictures of yours.
Thanks again,

Pictures like that keep me motivated. I have moved mine to a cooler terrarium, and am gradually reducing water. Thanks for the tips.

You might just need to add more sphag to keep the mount more moist.

Incredible orchid, I can't believe how small!
