I have placed the pot in a large terrarium jar without a lid, a layer of rocks in the bottom and with some water In the rocks but not touching the pot. In a warm Cattleya greenhouse with bright light but not direct sun. Trying for high humidity, warm and bright. It is in moss in a slotted pot. That seems ok as it is still alive and solid after some months.

Tom, in the wild was it at low elevation and therefore hot? I could move it to cooler, less bright Phalenopsis conditions. Or to a shadier spot in the warmer greenhouse. Guesses as to what would be best?

Tom or anyone: what species is this close to?

THANKS!

Craig
