Cultivating the Rlc. Star of Siam is a rewarding experience, provided with proper care. Here are some tips to help you nurture this beauty:

1. Light: Place your Rlc. Star of Siam 'Pumpkin' in a location where it can receive bright, indirect sunlight. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can scorch the delicate foliage.

2. Temperature: These orchids thrive in warm temperatures, ideally between 65°F to 85°F (18°C to 29°C) during the day, with a slight drop at night.

3. Watering: Maintain a consistent watering schedule, allowing the potting medium to dry slightly between waterings. Avoid letting the roots sit in water, as this can lead to root rot.

4. Humidity: Aim for a humidity level of around 50% to 70%. You can achieve this by placing the orchid on a humidity tray or using a room humidifier.

5. Fertilization: Feed your Rlc. Star of Siam regularly with a balanced orchid fertilizer during the growing season. Reduce feeding during the dormant period.

6. Repotting: Repot the orchid every one to two years, using a well-draining orchid mix. Repotting helps refresh the potting medium and provides ample space for root growth.
