Orchids
Description
Rhynchostylis gigantea Orange is a vibrant cultivar of the foxtail orchid, originating from Southeast Asia. It stands out because of its long, pendulous inflorescences adorned with densely packed flowers that feature shades of orange or apricot. The flowers are highly fragrant, filling the air with a pleasant scent. As a monopodial orchid, it grows upright with fleshy leaves. This variety requires warm, humid conditions and bright, indirect light. Provide excellent air circulation. Use a well-draining orchid mix and water regularly, allowing the roots to dry slightly between waterings. Fertilizing during the growing season will enhance its robust flowering.
