Description

This species prefers to be mounted, but does well in a hanging basket too under the right conditions. If potting, pot in a chunky airy mix like orchid bark, perlite and charcoal. Make sure the medium has dried completely before watering again. Air circulation is important for the roots to properly dry and to keep the foliage cooled off. This species prefers high humidity and a position in very bright filtered light. Protect from freezing temperatures.
