Care Instructions:
-
Light: Thrives in bright, indirect light – avoid direct sunlight to protect foliage
-
Watering: Keep soil evenly moist – water when the top 2–3cm of soil is dry
-
Humidity: Requires high humidity (60–80%) – ideal for greenhouse cabinets or humid rooms
-
Soil: Use a chunky, airy mix – orchid bark, perlite, sphagnum, and a touch of coco coir
-
Feeding: Apply a calcium-rich or foliage-focused fertiliser every 4–6 weeks during growing season
-
Temperature: Maintain between 18–26°C – protect from cold drafts and sudden shifts
-
Maintenance: Wipe leaves gently to keep the velvet surface clean and vibrant
🌿 Tip: This hybrid prefers stability over frequent changes – let it settle to really shine.
