Culture Notes from Donor: Parent plant: Temperature range I (60-83°F). This plant likes bright indirect light. I have it in a southern window with some direct sun in the winter months. This plant had 5 flowers on one spike & 4 on another. It likes to stay moist with somewhat of a drying period between waterings. I have it potted in sphagnum moss.
Comments: Parent plant: Medium-sized plant.
