Add Your Opinion About This Plant
An orchid for cool or temperate zones from the misty reaches of Nepal, the Himalayas, Assam, Bhutan, Sikkim and Java. It grows in lower and upper montane forests at altitudes between 1500 to 2600 m where there is all year fog and mists and bright winter light. Epiphytic on mossy trees and occasionally lithophytic found on rocky outcrops. Pot in medium grade compost, don't overpot, and repot every 1-3 years. Amoderate feeder, feed with 1/4 strength fish emulsion during growing season every week and towards end of growing season give extra feed of potash to encourage bulbs to harden off and good flowers the next year.
