    They do need moist/humidity conditions as all orchids do.
    So as many others have said not near a radiator.
    Spraying each day (especially now)  will help the the roots to send down mositure and keep the plant to maintain the right conditions.

    As I understand it they love a moist environment - kitchens and bathrooms, misting. So, yes, not near a radiator.

    Moving mine to a cool porch always helped to stimulate new stems, yes. But it can take a while.
    Thank you Fire.

    Funnily enough hubby said to me of course they live in the rain forest under the canopy in the shade, that is where they go here for their summer holidays, not the rain forest,just in open metal hanging baskets under my trees, keeps them away from the slugs,and easy to water band spray
