Strange and strictly for the collector of bizarre orchids. Although I wouldn't mind adding the first one to my collection.

Dear Dot,
normally they are cool grower, but you find also plants in habitats with higher temperature.
So you find the Myoxanthus monophyllus in a habitat nearby Phrag. besseae in a temperated climate
