🌳 Description:

• Family: Orchidaceae

• Genus: Phalaenopsis

• Household Use: Orchid suitable for indoor cultivation, ideal as an ornamental indoor plant due to its showy and long-lasting blooms

• Flowering: Abundant; can rebloom multiple times a year under optimal conditions

🌞 Light Exposure: Medium, indirect, and diffused light. Avoid direct sunlight which can burn the leaves. Ideal near an east or west-facing window, or a south-facing window shaded by a curtain.

🚿 Watering: Water when the substrate is almost completely dry, generally every 7–10 days in summer and every 10–14 days in winter. Prefer to submerge the pot for 10–15 minutes, then allow to drain completely. Avoid water stagnation at the collar.

🌡️ Minimum Tolerable Temperature and Cultivation Temperature: Cultivation in a medium-warm range: ideal daytime temperature 22–28 °C, nighttime 16–20 °C. Minimum tolerable temperature: 15 °C for short periods. Avoid sudden temperature changes and cold drafts.

🌱 Soil Type and Repotting: Recommended substrate: pure sphagnum moss or bark mixed with perlite. Repot every 1–2 years, preferably after flowering, when roots are extensively growing out of the pot or the substrate has deteriorated.

🌿 Fertilization: Fertilize every 2 weeks during the active growing season (spring-summer) with a balanced orchid fertilizer (e.g., 20-20-20) at half the recommended dose. In autumn-winter, reduce to once a month.

✂️ Pruning or Other Recommended Agronomic Treatments: After flowering, cut the flower stalk above a node to stimulate new branching, or at the base if the stalk is completely spent. Remove dry or damaged leaves with sterilized tools. No rest period is necessary.

💧 Environmental Humidity: Ideal humidity: 60–80%. In dry environments, mist aerial roots (not leaves) or place the pot on a tray with gravel and water. Always ensure good ventilation to prevent rot.
