Orchid not in bloom.

 

🔧 Skill Level: Intermediate – This hybrid requires some experience with orchid care, particularly with light and humidity management.

🌍 Native: Hybrid; parent species are native to Southeast Asia (Rhynchostylis coelestis) and East Asia (Vanda falcata).

⛰️ Elevations: Found at elevations from sea level up to 700 meters in their native range.

🪴 Size: Compact to Medium – Generally grows around 10-15 inches (25-38 cm) tall, with a manageable size for indoor spaces.

🎍 Perfect for Terrariums? No – Prefers open air and good airflow; ideal for mounting or pot culture with high humidity rather than terrariums.

☀️ Blooming Season: Summer to early fall; blooms vary based on growing conditions.

🌸 Bloom Size and Color: Small to medium-sized blooms, approximately 1-2 inches (2.5-5 cm) across, with striking blue to lavender hues and a white center.

🌡 Temperature:

  • Summer: High 29-32°C (84-90°F) | Low 20-23°C (68-73°F)
  • Winter: High 18-22°C (65-72°F) | Low 12-15°C (54-59°F)

💧 Watering: Water thoroughly 2-3 times a week during active growth; reduce to once weekly in winter. Ensure roots dry between waterings.

☁️ Humidity: 50-80% – Requires consistent humidity, especially in warmer months. High humidity helps promote root health and flowering.

💡 Light: Bright, indirect light – Ideal under filtered sunlight or in an east-facing window. Can tolerate moderate light but may bloom less.

🌰 Growing Medium: Prefers to be mounted on cork or bark, or in an open pot with coarse, well-draining media (like bark or charcoal).

🧪 Fertilization: Use a balanced, water-soluble orchid fertilizer at half strength every two weeks during active growth. Reduce feeding in winter to once monthly.
