I agree most books contradict each other on the cultivation of I. dyeriana. I have killed quite a few but I now grow them at a min. of 15 centigrade in a pot hung on its side. I do not let them dry out but they do not get drenched.Regards ----- Original Message ----- From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, September 17, 2004 12:37 PM Subject: Orchids Digest, Vol 6, Issue 390
