Where can I find info on this orchid? Managed to pick this up for $5.00 but don't have a clue how to look after it. Just could not walk by it for this price. Now I am in a quandry as how to mother it.....help.help.help.
Thanks Chuck.

Hi, Chuck,
Try the link below for general information. FWIW, we grow the Brassias that we have (not too many) in media of coconut husk chips, small Aliflor, sponge rock and a little charcoal. Some folks add a little spaghnum to the mix.
Light: Not as high as Cattleyas, not as low as Phalaenopsis.
Temps: Warm to intermediate.
Fert: Same as you feed everyone else.

Oh, go for the greenhouse! If I lived anywhere but Florida I would absolutely need to have the fuss of a G/H!
