Myrmecophila Tibiana (upper case T, its a registered hybrid) is the cross of Mcp. tibicinis x Mcp. thomsoniana. It should be a smaller plant than Mcp. tibicinis. Zain's info on size sounds about right. But shade outdoors in Malaysia may still be quite a bit of light compared to Massachusetts indoors. It may need 4500fc + in summer to really thrive considering how much less intense and shorter duration winter light will be. If a mature plant doesn't bloom it will probably be due to insufficient light. Mcp. tibicinis actually needs rather cool nights to go with hot days while Mcp. thomsoniana is fine with warm nights. The hybrid should tolerate a broad range of temps. All Mcp. need perfect drainage, but probably with frequent water if conditions are hot and bright.
