Phragmipedium QF Lee is a primary cross between the elegant Phrag. hirtzii and the magnificent Phrag. caudatum blends the desirable characteristics of its parent species to create a plant with stunning floral features.

• Light: Prefers bright but indirect light. It is crucial to avoid direct sun, especially during the midday hours, as this can easily scorch the leaves.
• Temperature: Thrives in moderate temperatures, with a preference for intermediate conditions. Ideal daytime temperatures range between 18-24C (65-75F), with a slight drop at night to 13-18C (55-65F).
• Humidity: Requires high humidity, ideally between 60-80%. Good air circulation is vital to prevent fungal issues, especially in humid conditions.
• Watering: This hybrid demands consistent moisture. Proper care involves ensuring consistent moisture in a well-draining growing medium and providing regular fertilization to support robust growth and vibrant flowering.
