After killing a few Cyms, I was told by a grower that if you grow Cyms, set them off to the side of all your other orchids, and just about forget about them. He said they like lots of light and very little water. I was rotting them out by letting them get daily mistings with the other 'chids. I think what I've noticed is.....the bigger the bulb is on a particular species, the less water that they require to flourish. Anyone feel free to correct me on that one.
....and here's a pic of the whole plant, it's in a 5" square pot.
