This is one of the cutest Phalaenopsis species you can find. It produces adorable button-sized blooms that you and your orchid buddies will admire. It grows very nicely when mounted, but try to keep it moist. If you forget, though, it might still be OK, as one of the fascinating things about this species is that it can go through a leafless period in response to drought. Phal parishii will grow very well in a terrarium/vivarium environment which keeps the humidity high, and can be as simple as a 2-liter soda bottle or similar.
How to grow:
1) Moderate shade (avoid prolonged direct sun). Keep humidity high for best growth.
2) Water once to twice a week; let dry between waterings.
3) Use NZ Sphagnum Moss or chunky bark for plenty of aeration at the roots.
4) Fertilize twice per month.
5) Avoid temps below 50 F; temps into the 90s F or even over 100 F are tolerable if kept shady and well-watered
