Care Tips:
-
Light: Provide bright, indirect light. Morning sun can be beneficial, but avoid strong afternoon sun, which can scorch its leaves.
-
Temperature: Aim for warm daytime temperatures between 24–30°C (75–86°F) and slightly cooler nights around 18–22°C (64–72°F).
-
Humidity: Maintain high humidity levels between 70–80%. Use humidifiers, pebble trays, or group plants together to achieve this.
-
Watering: Water thoroughly when the potting medium begins to dry out, allowing excess water to drain freely.
-
Mounting: Mounting on cork or tree fern is recommended, as this mimics its natural epiphytic habitat.
-
Fertilization: Use a balanced orchid fertilizer diluted to one-quarter strength every 2 to 4 weeks during the growing season.
