| Lisa,
I just talked to a friend of mine that primarily grows Vandas. She has a Barkeria
and she told me she grows this very similar to her Vandas. She has hers in a
basket with large bark (It needs good drainage with nothing too compact around
the roots), charcoal, and larva roc. Lots of water during the growing season,
but needs to almost dry before the next watering. They also need a winter
rest where they will lose their leaves. Keep them cool, bright, with lots of
good air circuilation around them. Water very sparsely during the rest period. |
