Pleione in Mexican Pinguicula compost?

Hi all,

 

I was just wondering whether anyone has tried growing Pleione in a typical Mexican Pinguicula mix (e.g. equal parts peat, perlite, vermiculite, sharp sand)?

I grow them in perlite/coir which is a bit similar, my pings are in perlite/vermiculite/peat.

A few pleiones are lithophytic and grow with no compost, so i usually add lots of perlite and have to remember to fertilize!

I also grow them outside in full sun (sometimes), heres tongariro in perlite/coir.
