• Temperature: Maintain warm temperatures between 20°C to 28°C (68°F to 82°F). Protect from cold drafts.
• Soil/Substrate: Use a well-draining, airy, and rich potting mix composed of orchid bark, perlite, sphagnum moss, and coco coir for aeration and moisture retention.
• Fertilizer: During active growth (spring/summer), feed every 2-4 weeks with a diluted, balanced liquid fertilizer (1/4 to 1/2 strength). Reduce in fall/winter.
• Maintenance: Gently clean leaves with a damp cloth. Monitor for pests like spider mites and mealybugs. Best suited for experienced plant enthusiasts.
