They are slow growing to flowering size. They take full sun in winter and I
give it about 20% shade in summer. As you know there's nothing alive that
needs full sun in the deep south during summer. I grow it in a small basket
with some pumice and a few chuncks of medium CHC. Most of the rupicolous
laelias do fine for me like that. There's always room for 1 more of these.
They fit in anywhere among the vandas or with B digbyana.
