As I reread the above linked cultural tips, they appear to be controdictory. One says 1000-1500 foot-candles, anothe says 2000-3600 foot candles. That's a big difference to me. One says water freely (or something like that) another says dry out between waterings. I really like my mounted one in the orchidarium. That's a "piece of cake" for me. Nice exposed roots, nice breeze 24/7, nice mistings regularly, etc. But these balls of sphagnum have me going. Not sure how to handle these.

I don't do most Dendros or large, "floofy orchids". For me it's minis (like Angraecoides), Masdies, Paphs, and others that crept in somewhere along the line. See my orchid list for complete collection (usually not current.)
