Good point that these are about as bog orchid as you get without the scent of the bog.
You can call it goopy. Hot humid and goopy. Was under 70% shade cloth last year. Going to try 50% this season for a while. See how the leaves look next month. Move it under a bench or behind some more cloth.
It's a full morning sun, afternoon can burn it. As much shade as it can get under the hottest days. Think like a bog. We see how this does after being battered last night. Just glad the hail didn't hit me plants!!!
A Peter T Lin plant too so that always helps getting a good start. He hasn't had these lately. I wanted another one just in case ya know..Thanks!!
