Phragmipedium Eugene Banziger ('Ecuagenera' H00572  x 'Camila') Culture:

This extraordinary slipper orchid represents a selective breeding between two exceptional clones from the original parents of Phragmipedium Eugene Banziger. The 'Ecuagenera' H00572 and 'Camila' clones were carefully selected from Phragmipedium Hanne Popow and Phragmipedium Fritz Schomburg respectively for their outstanding characteristics. 

• Light: Thrives in bright, filtered light conditions. Direct sunlight should be avoided, particularly during peak afternoon hours, as it can cause leaf burn. 
• Temperature: Performs best in cool to intermediate temperature ranges. Maintain daytime temperatures between 16-22°C (60-72°F), with nighttime temperatures dropping to 10-16°C (50-60°F). 
• Humidity: Requires consistently high humidity levels between 65-85%. Ensure excellent air movement to prevent stagnant conditions that could lead to bacterial or fungal problems. 
• Watering: Demands constant moisture without waterlogging. Use a well-draining, moisture-retentive growing medium and maintain consistent dampness throughout the root zone. The growing medium should never completely dry out, but should not remain soggy. 

Additional Notes

• Floral Characteristics: The sequential flowering habit ensures extended blooming periods, making this cross particularly rewarding for collectors seeking exceptional quality specimens.
