Default Help Needed with Neo Culture

I liked the way Becca has her Neo plants set up in her latest post. It tells me that I don't know much about Neo culture.
I bought a small bare root one in 5/07 at the Redlands Festival, brought it home, secured it to a small chunk of tree fern bark and tied this inside of a 4 inch wooden Vanda basket. I've got it hanging with my Vandas in high light and it gets watered at least once a day, sometimes twice. It’s never bloomed...yet...but it has more than doubled in size. It started with 3 small fans plus one tiny fan. Now it has a total of 9 fans (I think), although a couple of them are quite small. It actually looks very healthy, but has never bloomed!
After seeing Becca's mounts...and other photos over the past several weeks of these beauties growing in sphagnum, I'm wondering if I should tuck sphagnum in around the tree fern chunk. This might be tricky because there are roots all over the Vanda basket and tree fern chunk. Also, if I do this, will the daily watering be too much for it?
Please keep in mind that I live in Southwest Florida and I grow my orchids outdoors year round in my shade house and around my pool enclosure (in case this has any bearing on advice given).
