S/H Question

Has anyone tried a Maxillaria or Bllra. in S/H. I bought both of these recently and really fell in love with the Maxillaria .....I use a lot of S/H.

I have a Maxillaria Tenuifolia in S/H. It's been in there since last summer and it's growing well. It just hasn't flowered for me.

Although I grow everything I have in S/H, I do not have any Maxillaria because I don't think I can keep it humid or cool enough for them. Let us know how it goes.

Mine was growing OK in semi-hydro but just yesterday I mounted it instead. I dont see a problem with putting it in S/H.
