big hanging pot the kind with a hemp or moss liner. Hang it from a big oak or other shade tree. It needs dappled light but not full shade. Water if it doesn’t rain but don’t keep it soaked. Bring it in at the first hint of 40 degree weather. It will get very big (and heavy) if it’s in a spot it likes. It would be helpful if you have a greenhouse or heated garage where it can live over the winter.
Cool plant just a PIA once it gets big

I have 14 of them. All different varieties. I have baskets and mounts on cypress. Use peat or sphagnum moss or any other organic material except regular dirt They can take quite bit of watering but make sure and water the actual leaves too. Take them in a well lit area around 40 degrees and they will grow year around

I buy bags of orchid food from Lowe’s.
Blue granules. One enclosed scoop to a gallon of water.
I use a spray bottle and spray them with it once a week.
Yep no direct sun for long periods.
They will burn in this heat
