Description

Phragmipedium Super Rubies Culture:

This exceptional slipper orchid hybrid is a cross between Phragmipedium humboldtii and Phragmipedium besseae, combining distinctive characteristics that make it a prized specimen for discerning orchid collectors.

  • Light: Prefers moderate, indirect light. Avoid direct sun, especially during midday hours, as this can easily scorch the leaves.
  • Temperature: Thrives in intermediate temperatures. Ideal daytime temperatures should range between 18-24°C (65-75°F), with a slight drop at night to 13-18°C (55-65°F).
  • Humidity: Requires high humidity, ideally between 60-80%. Excellent air circulation is still essential to prevent fungal issues, especially in humid conditions.
  • Watering: This hybrid demands consistent moisture. Proper care involves using a well-draining growing medium. The potting medium should never be allowed to dry out completely.

Additional Notes

  • Floral Characteristics: The flowers of Phragmipedium Super Rubies feature dramatic burgundy and deep purple coloration with elongated, twisted petals and a prominent slipper-shaped pouch, creating a striking and elegant display with rich, velvety tones.
