Optimal temperature at flowering time is 10 to 15°C
 
Beautifull! 'Giganteum' is that for the flowers or for the plant itself?!

Kind regards, Jens

The plant itself is small

Berthold, that's not var giganteum. If it has a sweet scent it is tetragonum var tetragonum, if it has no scent or not much it is var melaleucaphyllum. Var giganteum has yellow spots and splashes on the petals.

Yes, Mike, I have to agree, thanks.
I see the plant between melaleucaphyllum (80%) and tetragonum (20%), based on my available documents.
 
Was wondering how it would do in traditional Japanese/Korean Choseiran culture? I can’t get into D. moniliforme but THIS wild thing... where did you get it? How long have you grown? What are it’s humidity
I got the plants 6 years ago from a near by orchid nursery for 13 Euro.
Humidity is medium in pot culture, pine bark in clay pot with a moss layer on top
