Which orchids don't like being misted?

[King_of_orchid_growing:)]

The problem with Phals is that when people grow these upright, and they mist them, water dribbles into their crowns. Unless the water is removed from the crown, it'll sit there and rot the plant out.

Phals don't grow upright in nature. I've posted links to pictures of them in the wild to verify to people that what I'm saying isn't bs. They grow horizontally or pendulously. This is so that when it rains, water dribbles away from the crown to avoid crown rot.

Plus, I agree with what Harry had said. Your question is difficult to answer with a simple response.

1. You're growing different genera of plants from different families.

2. We don't know what your setup is.

3. There are too many factors involved.

Tillandsias in my experience are not the best subjects for terrariums, vivariums, etc. For the most part, they like good air circulation and don't like to have water sitting on their leaves for too long. They have a tendency to rot very quickly in such setups.

Tillandsias are also very varied in habitat depending on the species. Species with enlarged trichomes that make them look hairy or fuzzy are from arid (xeric) areas. As in they may grow where cacti or succulents grow. Sometimes they're found on rock cliffs exposed to full sun. Not all Tillandsias are tropical rainforest inhabitants.

Species such as Tillandsia cyanea are tropical rainforest dwellers.

You're better off with bromeliads from the following genera for what you want to do:

Aechmea
Billbergia
Guzmania
Neoregelia

Okay, back to orchids...

If you're going to do a cloud forest type setup with mist and the whole bit, look into cloud forest type orchids such as Masdevallias, Pleurothallis, Lepanthes, Lepanthopsis, etc.

Ferns will love your setup too.

If you want to do an Asian rainforest and work around the Nepenthes, look into Asiatic tropical plants.
