Description

Successful cultivation of this charming Phragmipedium requires replicating its natural habitat conditions. Here are some essential cultural tips to ensure its thriving growth:

  • Light: Prefers medium to bright indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves.
  • Temperature: Enjoys intermediate temperatures. Daytime 18-24°C (64-75°F), nighttime 12-15°C (54-59°F).
  • Humidity: Requires high humidity levels of 60-80%. Use humidity trays or misting to maintain moisture.
  • Watering: Prefers consistent moisture and should not dry out completely. Use pure water to avoid mineral buildup. 

Additional Notes:

This is a terrestrial orchid that grows on the ground in its natural habitat. It should be grown in a well-draining mix such as a combination of fine bark and perlite, with excellent drainage to prevent root rot, and repotted every 1-2 years to refresh the growing medium.
