I guess I'm glad that orchids can't read. This guy is supposed to live in low to moderate light and not super-hot temperatures. I have kept it outside all summer in bright light with some direct sunlight. Daily or every-other-day water. Weekly fertilizer. The new growth is a lot more rigid than the old growth.

Keeping plants outside the best thing for them.

With Hybrids like these. They are such a mix that they don't know what they want. HAHA But really they made these hybrids to be hardy and tolerate a wide range of conditions. SO I am not surprised yours it doing well. A little bit of love and some research is what it takes. I try and give my orchids as much light as I can. I have burned a few but they live and I learn.

Good growing. Is this a rebloom for you?

Snow-
This is not a rebloom for me. I got it from an OS member in early spring. I think a squirrel got ahold of the bloom spike last year before it had a chance to flower, if I'm remembering that correctly.
