also, has anyone ever dealt with aripeka1 on ebay before?
sorry in advance for not knowing where to post about the ebay seller.

Well I can give a little help, I have L. anceps both mounted and potted. They like lot's of light,my mounted ones are outside in full sun year round and my potted ones are under lights. They like to dry out between waterings. One thing I have found is that when you get a spike you need to mist it often as a sticky substance forms on the spike and if not washed off the flowers have trouble opening.

thanks. i heard that its not just misting, its rinsing. so they like to dry out like phals? for your potted one, what kind of medium do you have? can you tell me about your climate?

:) Seriously, read through the project thread, there has been a lot of talk about it and you'll find a lot of good information.
I've just searched for "anceps" in the search option and have gotten some good info as well- searching first is a great way to see if other topics about things have already been made.
