Information

Brassia caudata

Brassia caudata is a classic spider orchid species prized for its long, tapering, greenish-yellow blooms marked with reddish-brown spotting. Its dramatic, elongated petals and reliable flowering habit make it a rewarding addition for collectors who love the wild, spidery charm of this genus.

Care Guide

  • Light: Bright, indirect light; a spot with filtered morning sun supports strong flowering.
  • Water: Water regularly, allowing the growing medium to dry slightly between waterings; avoid letting roots sit in standing water.
  • Temperature: Prefers warm to moderate conditions between 60-85°F (16-29°C); avoid sudden temperature swings.
  • Humidity: Thrives with humidity above 60%; misting or a humidity tray helps in drier environments.
  • Potting Mix: Use a well-draining orchid mix, such as bark, perlite, and sphagnum moss, to keep roots healthy.
  • Fertilizer: Feed lightly with a balanced orchid fertilizer during the growing season to encourage strong blooms.

With bright light and consistent care, Brassia caudata rewards growers with its striking, spotted, spidery blooms that bring wild character to any orchid collection.
