Culture Notes from Donor: Parent plant: Temperature range CI (58-75°F). Phalaenopsis lindenii can be tough to grow, but advice from Andy's in California and Sorella's in Washington State has made it much easier. Don't grow it in a greenhouse unless you can keep temperatures below 75°F, or can put it in front of a fan-pad cooler. I saw the best specimen ever growing in front of one. Also, in New York State, a very good place is in the kitchen window, where a fan can pull air in through window and cool the roots. It is best grown mounted with loose, damp sphagnum over the roots. In the fall when there is no active root or leaf growth, just keep the roots damp with mostly plain water ...no soggy conditions or it will rot. Also, the crown is susceptible to rot at this time.
Comments: Parent plant: Small plant.
