Thank you in advance.

I have one… I have kept it alive for 2 years or so, but it has yet to bloom. I keep it with my other species phals, so it gets watered when it is almost dry, and misted twice a day. Initially I mounted it, but it seemed to want to be moister, so I put the mount into a pot with bark, and it happily grew down into the humid bark. Seems to grow more slowly than other species… or perhaps I have yet to hit the ideal culture for it.
