Phymatidium tillandsioides watering?

[Fishkeeper]

Ah, gotta love name changes. I like tillandsioides better, too- it looks so much like an air plant, except for the roots. I wonder why that is- coincidence, or some functional reason for the shape?

Tried the NYBG search function, and apparently they no longer have that plant in their collection.

I guess I'll put this little guy in a well-ventilated area and keep its roots lightly moist. Hopefully, if it doesn't like where I put it, I can spot its upset before it gets too far gone.

You've got a nice little specimen there. What kind of schedule does it bloom on?

(Sidenote: I do have this in the correct subsection, right? Doesn't look like an Oncidium relative, but that's what I was reading, and I guess the flowers are a bit towards Oncidium shape.)
