To enjoy the bloom of this orchid to the fullest, here are some care instructions:
- After flowering, prune the stem on which the flowers have wilted below the second bud (20 to 25 cm from the base).
- Location: Bright without direct sunlight, away from cold drafts.
- Temperature: Must be between 18 and 21 °C.
- Water: Immerse the plant in lukewarm water in a container (sink, tub) once a week, then allow it to drain well before placing the plant back in its pot. Add a little fertilizer once a week from March to September.
- Repotting: Every 2 to 3 years with a special orchid mixture; this is essential to support the plant's development.
- Outdoors: Do not place the plant outdoors throughout the summer, but at least protect it from rain and pay close attention to the temperature, as it can drop to around 10 to 12 °C.
