Natural habitat : Epiphytic, growing on low branches or tree trunks in shaded and well-ventilated areas, between 1,000 and 2,000 m altitude.
Growing Conditions (Lot of 15 in vitro plants) Temperature Day : 18–24°C. Night : 12–15°C (day/night difference favors blooming). To avoid : <10°C or >28°C. Humidity Ideal rate : 70–80%. Tips : Maintain constant humidity, especially during active growth. Use a misting system for in vitro plants. Light Intensity : Filtered light (east/west window or shade cloth in a greenhouse).
