Spathoglottis is a genus of tropical, terrestrial orchids with 40+ species. They are native from Sri Lanka to the Pacific Islands, where it blooms throughout the year. The foliage is palmlike with showy flower spikes producing successive flowering over time. Flower colors range from purple to yellow to white. Spathoglottis offer year round color in landscape ground beds in warm climates as well as an interesting and easy to grow house plant for cooler climates. They grow about 36 inches tall.
LIGHT - Spathoglottis will grow well under light shade to full sun conditions.
WATER - Keep plants evenly moist. They will tolerate some drying periodically.
MEDIUM - Well-drained, fibrous peat based soil mix incorporating at least 20% perlite or airlite. A mix of 60% peat, 20% perlite or airlite and 20% bark should work well under most conditions. Spathoglottis have a vigorous root system and require standard or extra deep containers. Azalea pots or bulb pans are not recommended.
NUTRITION - Spathoglottis are fast growing and require a higher than average nutrient supply. Nutritional requirements will vary with light and temperature conditions.
TEMPERATURE - As a tropical plant, Spathoglottis require daytime temperatures above 75 degrees F and nights above 60 degrees F for vigorous growth and flowering. Plants may drop leaves and go dormant with extended temperatures below 40 degrees F. Spathoglottis will not tolerate freezing.
Plants will bloom relatively non-stop provided warmth, bright light, and good nutrition. Flowers open a few at a time at the top of the spike. Each spike can last for months.
The orchid you will receive is growing in a 3 1/2" inch pot.
