Eulophia spectabilis
orchids
Description
Eulophia spectabilis is a striking terrestrial orchid known for its robust growth and showy flowers. This orchid forms pseudobulbs, which store water and nutrients. The leaves are large, lance-shaped, and green, adding to the plant's overall attractiveness. The flowers are the main attraction, typically large, with a range of colors from yellow to purple, and often with intricate patterns and markings. Eulophia spectabilis prefers a well-draining growing medium, such as a mix of soil, sand, and compost. It requires bright, indirect light and moderate humidity. Water regularly, allowing the soil to dry slightly between waterings. Providing good air circulation is helpful for preventing fungal problems. Fertilize regularly during the growing season.
