The plant matures slowly, with broad leaves and vigorous aerial roots; good flowering comes from a stable, well-lit specimen, not from forcing it with fertilizer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLight and temperature.\u003c\/strong\u003e Choose a very bright location with filtered light and gentle morning sun after acclimatization. Light-green leaves without dry spots indicate a good balance.

Aerial roots should not be cut and must not be kept constantly wet. Water left between the leaves or in the cachepot can damage the plant’s base; proper watering followed by partial drying is preferable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFertilization.\u003c\/strong\u003e During the active growing period, apply diluted \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sicretgarden.com\/products\/fertilizant-premium-pentru-orhidee\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eorchid fertilizer\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e after watering.
