These seem adaptable and easy to grow for me.

I've grown them by a sunny windowsill and hanging outside under a covered porch. They grew well in humid Hotlanta and hot dry San Diego between 45 and 110 oF. They seem to enjoy being moist, if not wet. I grow them with a saucer full of water during the warmer months and I let it get close to dryness during cooler months. They do fine somewhere between phal and catt light levels, but definitely can burn at catt levels if not acclimated. Definitely less than other dens which can take almost direct light... I fertilize year round and it seems to grow nonstop all year.

Each p-bulb seems to take about 2 years to mature, a year to lose its leaves, then flower. It seems to flower intermittently throughout the year, but concentrated during colder months.

I hope that helps!
