Key traits and growing stats from plant data
Watering, pruning, propagation, and repotting details from plant data
Water when the top inch of the potting medium feels dry. Reduce watering significantly during the winter rest period.
Remove spent flower spikes and any dead or damaged leaves or pseudobulbs. Pruning is minimal and mainly for plant health and aesthetics.
Propagation is typically done by division of mature pseudobulbs during repotting. Seed propagation is complex and usually reserved for specialized labs.
Repot every 1-2 years after flowering when the potting medium breaks down or the plant outgrows its container. Use fresh orchid mix.
