Embark on the journey of cultivating Paphinopea Charles Mans, a fascinating and rather rare intergeneric hybrid resulting from the cross between Stan. Shinjik and Pna. cristata.

• Light: Provide bright, indirect light. Avoid harsh, direct sun, which can scorch the leaves. 
• Temperature: Daytime temperatures should ideally range from 20-28°C (68-82°F), with a slight nighttime drop to 16-20°C (60-68°F). 
• Humidity: High humidity is crucial, ideally between 60-80%. 
• Watering: Water thoroughly when the top layer of the substrate feels slightly dry. Ensure excellent drainage. 
• Substrate and Potting: Given the potential for pendent inflorescences from its Stanhopea lineage, growing in a hanging basket or a slatted basket can be advantageous to allow the flower spikes to emerge downwards freely.

Aditional notes:

• Ventilation: Excellent air circulation is critical to prevent fungal and bacterial issues, especially in high-humidity environments. 
• Fragrance: With proper care, you may be rewarded with beautifully fragrant flowers, carrying notes from the highly perfumed Stanhopea side of its family tree.
