Catopsis berteroniana

[il brettio]

Hi,
how do you grow catopsis berteroniana?
Best regards

I don't know, but my friend does. His name is Google.

Believe it or not, I grow mine in 100% live LFS that is kept barely moist. Humidity is >80% and the plant is 3" under 160W cool white fluorescent lights (15h photoperiod). They're supposed to be epiphytic bromeliads but mine don't seem to know that.

PS: I formerly grew them in an orchid bark:LFS mix, but this didn't work as well as the live LFS.

They are epiphytes. I see them in their natural habitat in the Everglades.
