Light
Prefers bright, indirect light. A north- or east-facing window is ideal. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch the leaves. If grown under artificial lights, provide 1214 hours of light daily to support growth and flowering.

Water
Water thoroughly when the potting medium begins to dry out. Avoid letting the roots sit in water, as this can lead to root rot. In winter, reduce watering frequency but do not allow the plant to completely dry out.

Humidity
Thrives in moderate to high humidity levels (5070%). Use a humidity tray or place near a humidifier if the air is dry. Regular misting can help, but avoid misting directly on flowers to prevent spotting.

Soil
Plant in a well-draining orchid mix, typically made of bark, perlite, and charcoal. Repot every 23 years or when the potting medium begins to break down. Repotting is best done after flowering.

Food
Feed with a balanced, water-soluble orchid fertiliser every 24 weeks during the growing season (spring and summer). Reduce feeding to once a month in autumn and winter when growth slows.

Temperature
Prefers temperatures between 1624C. A slight temperature drop (about 5C) at night can encourage flowering. Avoid exposure to temperatures below 12C or sudden drafts.

Pet-safe
Yes, this orchid is non-toxic to pets and humans.

Sprouts Top Tips
Monitor the pseudobulbs for signs of dehydration. If they become wrinkled, increase watering slightly. After flowering, cut back spent flower spikes to encourage new growth.
