Seriously. I have one (Paph Avalon Druid)-- I got really sick and lost most of my orchids because of disinterested, careless "helpers," But After I had about 4-5 plants left out of a 70 or so plant collection, I just said "heck it" and threw them immediately into deep water culture. I did not do diddly-squat for them except keep them in a window and make sure they were topped up. I still have the same 5 plants. One that paph. It got to one pathetic wilty leaf set, but is now strong, clean, glossy, and going on its third growth. (no flowers yet though). Just high light and lots of water.
