Question Den. Karen - media ideas

Is anyone growing Den. Karen? What media have you used for this or simmilar Den.s? Using the RHS site Karens background is:
25% Den. gouldii
25% Den. bigibbum
25% Den. tokai
12.5% Den. taurinum
12.5% Den. discolor

or put another way 75% section Spatulata and 25% sec. Phalaenanthe.

Thanks for any ideas.

I have mine growing in a bark mix. They have really pretty purple-pink-red (sort of a mix of the three) flowers. It seems to like it

Thank you. Now that I know the color, I am even more motivated. This will be a rescue from almost no roots, if I can pull it off.

no roots? easy.. Dendrobium is easy with hybrid. Lots of sunlight(no direct light) and
water it will grow the roots back..Provided you have a healthy cane.
