Keep the substrate consistently moist but not waterlogged during the growing season. Reduce watering significantly during the dormant period, allowing the soil to dry out slightly between waterings.

Avoid overhead watering to prevent fungal issues on the foliage.

Remove spent flower spikes at the base once blooming has finished. Trim any dead, yellowed, or damaged leaves as needed. This helps maintain plant health and directs energy towards new growth and flowering.

Chloraea magellanica is primarily propagated through division of mature pseudobulbs during repotting. Ensure each division has at least two or three healthy pseudobulbs and some roots. Plant in well-draining orchid mix.

Repot every 2-3 years, or when the potting medium begins to break down or the plant outgrows its container. This is best done after flowering, typically in spring. Use a well-draining orchid mix.
