    Grown in bright shade, intermediate, mounted on cork with coconut fiber over the roots so it dries quickly. I purchased this from Napa Valley Orchids 2 years ago and it has done exceedingly well for me.

    Gorgeous. Mine isn't quite so chirpy. How much light do you give it? Wondering if that's not the culprit and I need to move it closer to the bulbs.

    Stephen, without a light meter I can only say "bright shade". Growing near it ... Restrepia cupria, Masd. decumana, Gastrochilus japonicus. It wasn't planned but it does get strong air movement since it is almost directly under my ceiling fan. I fertilize via an injector with every watering. I would say that mine gets light closer to "Phalaenopsis light" instead of "Bulbo light"
