🪴 Growing Conditions
🔆 Light

Prefers medium to bright indirect light.

Morning sun or filtered light is ideal.

Avoid harsh, direct afternoon sun (can cause leaf burn).

🌡️ Temperature

Day: 20–30°C (68–86°F)

Night: 13–20°C (55–68°F)

Protect from frost or cold drafts.

💧 Watering

Keep consistently moist, but allow slight drying between waterings.

Water more frequently in warm months, reduce slightly in cooler seasons.

Good water quality (rainwater or filtered) is ideal.

💨 Humidity & Airflow

Likes high humidity: 60–80%

Ensure excellent air circulation to prevent rot and fungal issues.

Use fans if grown indoors or in a greenhouse.

🌱 Potting Medium

Best grown mounted on wood/slabs or in open baskets.

Suitable materials:

Sphagnum moss (light layer)

Tree fern fiber

Cork or hardwood mounts

Allow roots to be exposed to air – similar to Vanda culture.

🧪 Fertilizer

Use a diluted balanced orchid fertilizer (e.g., 20-20-20) weekly.

"Weakly, weekly" rule: 1/4 to 1/2 strength.

Flush with plain water every few weeks to avoid salt buildup.

🌸 Flowering

Blooms during rainy to early cool seasons (varies by region).

Flowers are small and spaced along the stem.

Not a showy bloomer, but prized by collectors of rare or miniature orchids.

✅ Extra Tips

Do not repot or disturb it frequently – it prefers to be left alone once established.

Best suited for humid, airy environments (e.g., shaded greenhouse, under large trees).

Excellent candidate for orchid collectors or natural-style displays.
