Lindsey, the Lc Fire Dance 'Patricia' is a very fast grower. You will do more than fine with it!!
It was one of my earlier purchases. I potted it on for some years until I had it in a large wooden tub. And couldn't lift it any longer.
Here it is in 2005

It must have been in the Spring of 2005 after it bloomed - I split the plant, threw away about 1/3rd and potted fresh into those wire baskets.
These pictures were taken in 2007.

About the Barkeria melanocaulon - it is a smallish, not particularly pretty plant with lots of long rots and a very long spike.
I took a picture in Jan. 2010; it still looks pretty much the same, except this year's spike came from a new growth. Not all roots made it into the picture.
