Do you grow it indoors because it is too hot where you live? Just curious. I know you grow quite a few orchids outside so I just assumed that this would be one of them. |

Leafmite I have one outside too, but this blooming one on the driftwood is grown indoors. It prefers intermediate, I would say, so the summer here is a bit too hot for this one, can survive in the shade though. |

The edge of the lip is fuzzy! And the fragrance is great, though there is some variation between plants. My first one smelled of freshly squeezed lemons, while the second one smelled very artificial- like lemon scented toilet cleaner....

Tommy,
I just received a plant from Andy's which is the third attempt and I would like to be successful with this one.
The general consensus for the application of fertilizer is about one tsp. per gallon during growth and less at other times. Would you suggest to fertilize less frequently or less quantity. |
