• Light: Provide bright, indirect light with some morning sun. East or west-facing windows with filtered light work well. Avoid harsh midday sunlight.
• Temperature: Maintain temperatures between 18-24°C (65-75°F) during the day with a slight nighttime drop of 3-5°C (5-10°F) to encourage blooming.
• Humidity: Requires moderate to high humidity levels of 50-70%. Use humidity trays, room humidifiers, or group with other orchids to maintain adequate moisture.
• Watering: Keep consistently moist but never waterlogged. Water when the growing medium begins to dry slightly. Use lukewarm, filtered water and ensure excellent drainage.

Additional Notes:
