Default Polyrrhiza lindenii -Ghost Orchid Winter Project
Received my little October ghost yesterday from Oak Hills Gardens!

Tonight: Plan A:
I've got the little wad of roots suspended on its mount, inside a Tupperware "bell" , hanging just a tiny bit above a small, clear plastic saucer full of ro water.

I am hoping that this setup will keep it warmer than the other orchids in the tank and provide enough protection from too much wind from the fan. Last night without its bell, it got down to 63 degrees with a high of only 79 degrees today. I'll have to see about how to warm things up more. What is my best temp range for this one? What is the safest low temp?

It's receiving low dappled light. . .about 400 fc and fairly frequent misting with ro water. . .twice today.

And so the winter project begins. . .
