My heart skipped a beat, no lie!
Will you share how you're growing yours? Any and all details will be welcome, but I'm particularly interested in humidity level of your growing space, and how often you water her.
Thank you!

Thanks for the comments!
Beth - I water it nearly every day when the sun is out. There’s a little ‘indicator fern’ growing on the mount that wilts when it gets too dry. RO water and frequent fertilization at 50 ppm nitrogen with Cal-Mag 15-5-15. Humidity is always near 70%. It grows in the greenhouse with the Cattleyas, so it gets lots of light. Minimum temp is 55F in Winter.

Thank you for the culture information!
I've got to google 'indicator fern.' I need one for every orchid I have.  |
