Water sparingly during the growing season, allowing the potting medium to dry out between waterings. Reduce watering significantly during the dormant period, providing only enough to prevent complete desiccation.

Overwatering is a common cause of root rot, so ensure good drainage.

Pruning is minimal. Remove spent flower spikes and any dead or damaged pseudobulbs or leaves only as needed. This species generally maintains a tidy habit, so avoid excessive cutting that could stress the plant.

Propagate by division when the plant outgrows its pot. Carefully separate pseudobulbs with attached roots during repotting in the spring.

Allow divisions to callus for a few days before replanting into a suitable orchid mix.

Repot every 2-3 years, or when the potting medium begins to break down, typically in spring. Use a well-draining orchid mix, such as bark chips with perlite.

Ensure the pot has adequate drainage holes to prevent waterlogging.
