Popularity

Water as the moss becomes dry - don`t let the moss feel crispy/crunchy. If the moss feels cool or damp to the touch, wait longer.

Water

Relatively bright East-facing windows or slightly-shaded south-facing windows work well. If your plant doesn't bloom well, try increasing the lighting.

Sunlight

For a potting mix, use sphagnum moss. You can also add some perlite for better drainage.

Soil

Use a balanced fertilizer at quarter strength once a week during the summer.

Fertilizer

Most species prefer intermediate temperatures, 70-80°F (21-27°C) during the day, with a 10-15°F (6-8°C) drop at night.

Temperature

Grow these plants in net pots, plastic baskets that allow a lot of air to the roots. They have to be repotted frequently, as they will quickly start to outgrow the pot. Another option is to grow them on bark.
