Plant Care 

Light: It likes bright indirect light. An east or north window is ideal. In the winter months, let it in more light, and keep it out of the blaring sun in the summer months.

Watering: Water little and often, but don't let it sit in standing water. Increase your watering during warmer months.

Temperature: These plants prefer it warm. If you are cold, so are they. Between 18-30˚C is preferable. Avoid cold drafts.  

Potting: These aren't too picky about their mix, but we prefer our airy ariod or sandy loam mix

Hot tips: Once the plant has finished flowering, cut back the stem above the leaves. This will encourage the orchid to bloom again next year. 

Pet Friendly: YES
