🌿 Planting & Care Tips
Light it Right: Keep in bright, indirect light. Too much sun can burn the leaves, while too little can reduce blooming.
Water Smart: Use room-temperature water and avoid letting the roots sit in standing water.
Humidity Boost: Create a tropical atmosphere with a humidity tray or by misting lightly in dry indoor air.
Support the Bloom Spike: Use a small orchid stake to keep the bloom spike tall and upright.
Rebloom Encouragement: After blooming, trim the spike just above a node to stimulate a possible second flowering cycle.
