Paphiopedilum Southernwood's Green Sapphire Culture
One of the Paphiopedilum hybrids we produce at Ecuagenera, Paphiopedilum Southernwood's Green Sapphire does best under warm-growing conditions.
-
Light: Low to moderate diffused light, never direct sun. Leaves should stay a healthy medium green; very dark leaves suggest too little light.
-
Temperature: Day temperatures of 25-32 °C (77-90 °F) with a gentle drop at night to 20-24 °C (68-75 °F) suit it best.
-
Humidity: Aim for 60-80% humidity year-round, always paired with good air circulation.
-
Watering: Keep the substrate evenly moist but never soggy; do not let it dry out completely, and avoid water sitting in the crown.
