  • Humidity: High humidity at 50–70%; humidifiers or pebble trays are recommended
  • Watering: Keep substrate consistently moist but never waterlogged; use a well-draining mix with frequent watering
  • Substrate: Fine sphagnum moss or bark mix works well for this species
  • Plant size: Approximately 3 cm
