Neat! What is your culture? Are you growing this in a wine refrigerator?

Hello Linus_Cello, sorry for the delay. I grow it in dead sphagnum moss which has been colonized by living moss. I never let it dry and keep it in a bright place during winter and in a shady one when temperatures begin to rise. During summer, I water it everyday if I can, every 2 days at least. 20/20/20 fertilizer is applied at about 300 µS/cm every two weeks. No sun at all. Min temperature around 50°F, and keep it as cool as possible during summer. Look for spider mites if you see black spots on the leaves!

Hope it helps. Regards.
