Water thoroughly when the potting medium is dry to the touch, typically during the active growing season. Reduce watering significantly during the dormant period, allowing the pseudobulbs to slightly shrivel.

Ensure good drainage to prevent root rot, as this orchid dislikes consistently soggy conditions.

Pruning is minimal for Eulophia speciosa. Remove spent flower spikes at the base once blooming is complete. Dead or damaged leaves can be trimmed back to the pseudobulb.

This encourages the plant to focus energy on new growth and flowering.

Propagation is primarily done by dividing mature pseudobulbs during repotting. Ensure each division has at least two or three pseudobulbs and some healthy roots.

Allow the cut surfaces to air dry for a day or two before repotting into suitable orchid mix.

Repot Eulophia speciosa every two to three years, or when the potting medium begins to break down. This is best done after flowering, as new root growth begins.

Use a well-draining orchid mix, such as bark, charcoal, and perlite. Avoid overcrowding the pot.
