    Hi Lika
    I have it mounted on cork, it grows warm (Min 12c during winter). I don't grow it all that wet misted about 3 to 4 times a week depending on the temp. I have owned it for about 5 years now and it has covered the mount, this is about the 12th spike this last month.
    Cheers Craig

    Thanks Craig. It truly was a nice flower. I'm not a big fan of the cirrhopetalum like flower, but this one was lovely.
