*Cultural and care information based on average Miltoniopsis care, use it as guide and should be adapted to suit your environment

🌡 Temp: Prefers Intermediate to cool (flex but keep 4-5+°C difference day / night). Can be grown vegetatively in warm, but should not exceed 24-25°C for extended periods.

💧 Water: Fresh water, moist to wet, water when approaching dry. Use RO or distilled water or rain water only. When mature, can keep wet in semi hydro or self watering pot. They do not like salt build up. Signs of underwatering if new growth has accordion-like pleating.

☁️Humidity: 40%+min if good watering habit. Pref. 50%+

💡 Light: Bright indirect (East Morning Light) to Medium direct

🌰 Media: Flexible epiphytic media - Bark (Phal.) mix, Sphagnum moss, Tree fern. Water retentive media preferred or top off so the media does not dry out too quickly. Semi hydro water reservoir is very helpful. Depending on watering habits, Sphagnum moss with Roe Standard mix is good combination. More moss ratio if you tend to forget to water.

🧪: Fertilize: When it's actively growing in vegetative stage - typically when a new growth emerges and growing rather than following seasons as these are intermediate to cool growers they will often grow over winter. We recommend MSU or Marphyll rotation in low dosage every other watering and allow thorough flushing with distilled water in between.

Purchasing Guide (In Spike vs Blooming Size)

In Spike (Flowering)

If you purchase an orchid in spike, it is in a stage of developing a flower spike that may bloom. There are many different stages of spikes, from just beginning of development to about to or fully opened blooms.

Sequential / Continuous bloomers have blooms one after another. Although the previous blooms may have dropped, it will continue to bloom with proper care.

End of - Means the bud are no longer at it's peak potential or nearing it's end. The spike may fully expire if there is wait time for shipping.

Shipping In-Spike: We believe we provide the highest quality of packaging to preserve a spike. However, by purchasing in-spike you are responsible for the risk if the buds blast (failing) or, the spike breaking is always present when shipping orchids in spike. Damaged buds or spikes will not be replaced, these plants will bloom again with proper care.

Blooming Size (No Flowers)

Our maturity terminology is an estimation at what size the plant is able to flower. It is based on other photos and experience. In optimal conditions, smaller orchids have surprised us with beautiful blooms. On the other hand, there have been larger orchids that have refused to spike.

Seedling size (SS): 2 years or more until bloom
Near Blooming Size (NBS): should bloom within 1-2 years
Blooming Size (BS): should bloom within 6 months, or have previously bloomed

When we're down to our last plant, we automatically reduce the price if it doesn't meet our standard grade or match our photos exactly. You're getting a healthy orchid at a better price – it just might have fewer leafs, be slightly smaller, or show minor cosmetic imperfections.
