Cultivating Tips:

• Light: Provide bright, indirect light similar to what orchids typically enjoy. Avoid direct sunlight, especially during the hottest part of the day.

• Temperature: Maintain temperatures between 65-85°F (18-29°C) during the day, with a slight drop at night. This mimics the orchid’s natural tropical habitat.

• Humidity: High humidity levels are preferred, ideally between 50-70%. Consider using a humidity tray or a humidifier to create a suitable environment.

• Watering: Water thoroughly when the top inch of the potting medium feels dry. During active growth, increase watering frequency, but allow the roots to dry slightly between waterings to prevent root rot.

• Fertilizing: Feed with a balanced orchid fertilizer at half-strength every 2 weeks during the growing season. Reduce frequency during the resting period.

• Potting Medium: Use a well-draining orchid mix such as bark or sphagnum moss. Repot every 1-2 years or when the potting medium breaks down.
