I bought a root of the goodyera pubescens this spring (because I love jewel orchids), and had hopes of growing it in a pot or terrarium. I live in an apt and can only garden indoors and on my balcony. My "baby" is alive, but it is still so tiny! I keep it evenly moist, in a peaty mix with good drainage, and it receives indirect light just to the right of an east window.

Here is a photo... (LOL! The penny focused better than the plant!)
