Care tips

Light

Place the orchid in a bright spot, but avoid direct sunlight during the summer months.

Water

Submerge the nursery pot in a shallow layer of water once a week and let it drain well.

Temperature

15-25°C

Fertilizer

Not necessary

If your orchid is in an arrangement, put two ice cubes next to the leaves twice a week. For optimal flowering pleasure, feed the orchid once a month.

Are you curious whether your Jewel Orchid needs water? Feel the top layer of soil. Is it dry? Then it does like a splash of water. Does it still feel moist? Then you’d better wait a while.

Did you know that orchids are sometimes provided with a pot web? This fine net is placed around the growing pot during cultivation. It prevents flies from laying eggs that develop into larvae which can damage the roots. In this way, the plant is protected naturally and environmentally friendly, without the use of pesticides. In addition, the net keeps the bark neatly inside the pot, ensuring a clean environment. You can either leave it in place or remove it—whichever you prefer.
