Anoectochilus roxburghii ‘Gold’

Anoectochilus roxburghii ‘Gold’ is a show-stopping gold-veined jewel orchid perfectly suited for humid, controlled and compact terrarium settings. Provide filtered light, tropical warmth, constant moisture without stagnation, and minimal feeding. In return, it rewards with glowing foliage that looks almost otherworldly. If you're crafting a living art piece inside glass, this cultivar is a top pick!

Features:

• Foliage: Deep green to dark lime, velvety leaves richly veined with shimmering gold—some specimens have especially thick, dense metallic veins that glow in filtered light.

• Growth Habit: A compact terrestrial orchid with a creeping rhizome, forming small rosettes—ideal for tight spaces and terrariums.

• Flowers: Produces small, understated white blooms in autumn or winter; most growers focus on its striking foliage instead.

Care Tips:

• Light: Prefers low to moderate indirect light; avoid direct sunlight to prevent leaf burn.

• Humidity: Requires high humidity levels, ideally above 60%, making it perfect for a terrarium.

• Temperature: Thrives in warm environments; temperatures between 18°C and 28°C (64°F–82°F) are ideal.

• Watering: Keep the substrate consistently moist but not waterlogged; use distilled or rainwater to prevent mineral buildup.
