Mystacidium capense
Default Mystacidium capense

Hi all,
hope I'm posting this in the right place. Tried the beginners post yesterday & someone has suggested I try the Vanda postings. I'm not sure this is what I'm doing but that's what I'm trying!!!
I have a new Mystacidium capense which I want to grow as a garden plant mounted on a Plumeria ( frangipani ) tree. I beleive the climate is OK for this, where I live, but have some concern about the light level this plant will prosper in. My research is that it needs quite subdued light levels but the descriptions of its habitat leeds me to think it naturally takes quite bright light - Acacia scrubland in southern Africa. Can anyone help? Maybe there's an African out there reading this.
If I attach it in the said situation it'd receive dappled shade through the summer (hot) months & full sun through the winter (cool) months. Is that too much to expect of it. I've grown a small sophronitis/laelia primary x in a very similar situation & it did amazingly well.
Fingers crossed....Ron
