Most Phalaenopsis Orchids enjoy lowland conditions, as long as the light is not direct sunlight. These can be mounted on just about anything.

Sorry noname I can't really help you.
All my orchids are hardy terrestrials.
They're manly man type plants with their feet down to earth, unlike those effete big girl's blouse type epiphytic tropicals ;D
Brian, you're never alone with a tart.

Guess this would qualify as a "girl's blouse" of an orchid but I've loved it since I was a child. Rhyncholaelia digbyana:  My green house conditions are definately low land or more likely Ultra-low land. Laelia tenebrosa 'Rain Forest' is another favorite of mine. I lean toward the cattleya family. |
