Like other tropical orchids, keeping Schomburgkia orchids in humid, warm conditions is key to their long-term health. These are large growers that do well with regular feeding and will need to repotted once they’ve begun to stretch past their container. Many gardeners choose to mount them vertically instead, and they can thrive in those conditions as well. Light Like all tropical orchids, Schomburgkia require lots of bright light every day to thrive. Assuming you are unable to grow them outdoors, keep them somewhere in your home that boasts ample bright light, where they can get at least eight to 10 hours of sun daily. If you notice the leaves on your orchid are growing too small or losing their color, it's a good sign that they need more light. Soil Plant your orchid in a coarse, well-draining soil mixture (like chopped sphagnum moss or perlite), or a store-bought mixture specially formulated for orchids. You can also work in a little organic material to boost the nutritional value of your plant. Above all, make sure your soil drains quickly and very well, as orchids can quickly develop rot if left waterlogged. Water These orchids love moisture, so be sure to keep them evenly watered and do not allow them to dry out. Frequent watering is especially important while the plants are actively growing in the spring and summer, and you can step back your watering cadence slightly during the fall and winter. Temperature and Humidity True to their tropical nature, Schomburgkia orchids prefer warm temperatures, ideally around 80 degrees Fahrenheit or higher. Though they can tolerate slightly lower temperatures during the winter months, you should never let the orchid dip below 65 degrees Fahrenheit to 70 degrees Fahrenheit. When it comes to humidity, it's best to keep the plant as humid as possible. If growing your orchid indoors, this means keeping it in an already-humid part of your home (like a bathroom or kitchen), misting it frequently, and potentially even using a small space humidifier nearby. The plant will do best in an environment that is 75 percent to 80 percent humidity at all times. Fertilizer Fertilize your orchid monthly using a balanced fertilizer (like a 20-20-20 blend) for best results. If you notice your plant is not blooming sufficiently, you can increase your feeding cadence to every other week.. Shipping: $8 USPS Priority WE COMBINE SHIPPING!!!!
