1. Give it lots of light, but no direct sun–60% shade cloth if outside in the sun or place it in an east window.
2. Keep it moist, but not soggy. Never let it dry out completely.
3. Feed it weakly weekly or at about half the recommended amount of an orchid fertilizer.
4. Try to maintain high humidity. Misting is good or place it in a container of rocks and water (not in the water.)
5. Don't leave it outside if the temperature drops to 50, especially if it is in bud.
