Questions on Dryadella zebrina culture

[flyingSquirrel]

I'm looking to grow a Dryadella zebrina in my paludarium. I'm wondering how moist or wet it can be, and how much shade it likes.

I have a spot where there is some moist/wet wood, and it's beneath a bromeliad. I'd like to plant it on the wet wood in the shade there.

Andy's Orchids sells the plant in a pot and says 'moist/daily watering', so I assume it can be wetter than say, something they sell attached to a stick. Should I be concerned about rot? (it's not super wet, but it would not ever dry out). Would I want to remove potting media and go bare-root in this situation?

Also I don't want to put it in so much shade that it becomes lanky, but I want it to be cool and happy. I have a 2 x 24W T5HO light setup, and the orchid would be beneath a bromeliad at about 12" beneath the lights. I know that isn't really any scientific measurement of light level but I'm hoping it will help enough.

Oh, one more thing, the plant would be growing flat on a horizontal surface, as opposed to mounted on a vertical surface.

What do you think?

thanks
