Default Epidendrum porpax

Anyone got any culture info or tips on this orchid? It is known as
either Neolehmannia, Nanodes, Epidendrum with epithet porpax or peperomia.

Reka,

This is one of the easiest orchids to grow - just keep it moderately bright,
intermediate to warm, humid, and don't let it dry out. I've heard it likes
regular dilute fertilizer - one member of our society had a great one that
wouldn't bloom until she started fertilizing it.

Good luck!

Yes, Epi porpax is a weed. I had one that formed a carpet-like mat, like a
ground cover of dichondra or something. I just kept it with my cattleyas
and spilled some water on it once in a while. I figured it needed to be
eveny moist, since it has no pseudobulbs. That worked.
