Description

Grow in very bright indirect light. The plant will grow in full sun, but for larger prettier flowers bright indirect light is best. This makes them great for house plants or taking up a bright shady spot in the garden. This orchid is found through Mexico and Central America. It grows in a well-draining potting soil with plenty of nutrients. They are water loving, wait until the top layer of soil has completely dried in between watering though to ensure the soil stays moist and not soggy. Protect from freezing temperatures- if growing in a cold climate, I recommend growing in a container.
