Maxillaria tenuifolia.. how much light? temperature?

Same for Pleurothallis restrepioides

How dry does Brassavola nodosa like to be? apparently I've been
growing it rather wet....

Encyclia cordigera var. rosea? how do you get it to bloom?lol

Same for Enc. randii?

I'm asking this as there is alot of info..some conflicting. .but then
find out various folks live in differant zones...

Can someone from say zone 4-5..possibly zone 6 clue me into the tricks?

much appreciated. .

Mr. Kyle Fletcher Baker, MCN
