Water thoroughly when the potting medium is almost dry. Avoid letting the plant sit in standing water, as this can lead to root rot. Reduce watering slightly during cooler months when growth slows.

Ensure good drainage to prevent waterlogged conditions.

Remove spent flower spikes at the base of the plant. Trim away any dead, damaged, or yellowing leaves as needed to maintain plant health and appearance. Pruning encourages new growth and prevents disease spread.

This orchid is typically propagated by division. When the plant becomes too large for its pot, carefully divide the pseudobulbs, ensuring each division has at least three healthy pseudobulbs and some roots.

Replant the divisions immediately.

Repot every 1-2 years or when the potting medium breaks down. Use a well-draining orchid mix. Repot after flowering, when new root growth is evident.

Choose a pot that is only slightly larger than the current root system.
