That genus likes it really bright, really warm, really humid,
and with lots
of air movement. I don't think the "sphag-n-bag" idea is a
good one unless
you can warm it up a lot, but without direct sun.

When I got the few I have, they were in similar condition. I
put them in
wooden slat baskets of coarse charcoal, hung them high in the
GH, and forgot
about them (except for regular watering along with the rest
of my
collection). In a few months they were screaming back to
life.

So do you think if I took it to my mom's little greenhouse it
might be okay? She has full south exposure with some green
plastic liner on the glass. I could hang it up there but I
can't really get it totally out of the sun.

I suppose I could hang it off another plant so that it didn't
get total direct light but it would still be in bright light.

Would it be too bright even with the green liner on the glass?

Sorry I am rather dumb but I haven't ever had orchids in Mom's
greenhouse before.

Thanks.
