Mastigion putidum
orchids
Description
Mastigion putidum is a unique orchid species known for its peculiar growth habit and interesting appearance. It's characterized by its slender, elongated stems that can grow to a considerable length. The leaves are relatively small and arranged along the stems. The flowers are usually small and inconspicuous, often with greenish or yellowish hues, sometimes with a subtle fragrance. Mastigion putidum is typically found in humid environments, often growing on trees or rocks. It prefers a well-draining growing medium that retains moisture, such as a mix of bark and sphagnum moss. Watering should be done when the growing medium is almost dry. This orchid thrives in moderate to low light conditions. Providing adequate air circulation is important to maintain its health, preventing the onset of diseases. Regular, but diluted fertilization during the growing season is beneficial.
