Your care routine
Watering
Allow the upper quarter of the mix to dry, then soak and drain; never leave roots standing in water.
Soil & drainage
Airy potting mix amended with orchid bark and perlite, in a draining container.
Fertilizer
During active spring and summer growth, use a balanced houseplant fertilizer at the label rate. Reduce or stop feeding when growth slows; never fertilize a dry or stressed root ball.
Temperature
Aim for 18–26°C indoors; protect from cold drafts and sudden changes in temperature.
Humidity
Aim for 50–60% if practical, with ventilation; avoid hot dry vents.
Through the seasons
During darker Metro Vancouver autumn and winter days, check moisture before watering and lengthen the interval as growth slows. Reassess daylight in spring and repot only if roots crowd the container.
When your plant needs help
- Yellow foliage and soft roots can follow waterlogged mix.
- Cottony deposits at leaf joints suggest mealybugs; isolate and inspect.
Pets & little ones
Harmful if chewed or ingested; aroid tissues contain irritating calcium oxalate crystals. Keep away from children and pets and avoid sap contact.
