Habenaria radiata- am I doing it right?
Default Habenaria radiata- am I doing it right?

I bought three little Habenaria radiata bulbs. One each of three different varieties. One of the has variegated leaves. I've never even thought about growing this plant until a friend of mine said she wanted to try it, and wanted me to go along with her and see if I could help her, since she has little experience with orchids at all. I potted them in a Cymbidium mix that had a lot of peat in it with a little small bark and charcoal added in, and I added some sphagnum, and planted all three in the same pot. They have all started growing. I keep the pot standing in a tray of water, but I let the tray dry before I refill it, so it gets a little less soggy every few days. It is in full sun most of the day until the sun moves west of the trees and it gets dappled light the rest of the day. My Catts do well in this light. All three of them are growing, but man are they moving slow. Is that normal? Are they just slow growing? Should I be fertilizing it? Or is everything okay and I'm just worried because I don't know what I'm diong? Thanks guys!
