Guida alla cura

Luce

Bright, indirect light, similar to or slightly less than Cattleya; avoid hot direct sun on the soft foliage. Good light is needed for the showy spikes.

Acqua

Keep the medium evenly moist during active growth, letting it approach (not reach) dryness between waterings. These cool-growers dislike both drought and stagnant wetness; ease off slightly in winter.

Substrato

Fine to medium free-draining bark mix; repot regularly as the mix breaks down, since the roots are sensitive to stale medium.

Temperatura e umidità

Cool to intermediate, 12–24 °C with a night drop; high humidity (50–70%) with good airflow and cool nights are key.

Concimazione

Feed weakly weekly at quarter to half strength year-round, slightly less in winter; flush periodically with plain water.

Potatura

Remove spent spikes and dead roots; keep the medium fresh. Non-toxic.
