Default Where to mount Aerangis citrata

Hello!

My dealer gave me a A. citrata for free with my last order and I'm not sure if this little guy will do fine inside my rainforest terrarium because of the constant humidity so I was thinking to grow it in my windowsill. It's a east one but I live near London, so I'm not sure if will have enough light, and then, Which one is the best mount media? I got tree fern panels, hygrolon and bark cork. What do you recommend me?

Thank you for your help!

Pd: I have a A. luteoalba var rhodosticta that I'm planing to grow inside the terrarium. It should be fine, isn't it?

I consider myself fortunate just to have kept the current citrata alive for the past year so hopefully you will get some expert advice.

I have a citrata that's mounted on cork with a bit of sphagnum, and it's doing fine in an east window (eastern Oregon, USA, latitude 45 degrees North). It likes to be watered every couple days to keep the roots green.

I grow this species in a north facing window (San Francisco Bay Area) - It doesn't want much direct sun - a bit of early morning and/or late afternoon is good. Citrata is reported to tolerate deep shade.

I got mine from Andy's already mounted - it's on a shingle, so cedar maybe ?
