Onderhoudsinstructies
Cattleya amethystoglossa requires bright, indirect light and moderate temperatures. It thrives in high humidity and needs good air circulation. Watering should be done when the medium is almost dry, and the plant benefits from a rest period during the cooler months.Bodem
This orchid prefers a well-draining medium such as a mix of bark, perlite, and sphagnum moss. The medium should allow for good air circulation around the roots to prevent rot.Kunstmest
Use a balanced orchid fertilizer with a nutrient composition of 20-20-20. Fertilize every two weeks during the growing season and reduce feeding during the dormancy period.Verpotten
Repot Cattleya amethystoglossa every 2-3 years or when the medium breaks down. Repotting is best done in the spring after flowering. Use a fresh, well-draining orchid mix and ensure the new pot provides adequate drainage.Voortplanting
Propagation is typically done through division. Divide the plant when repotting, ensuring each division has at least three pseudobulbs. Plant the divisions in fresh orchid mix and provide the same care as the parent plant.Snoeien
Pruning involves removing spent flower spikes and any dead or damaged pseudobulbs. This helps to maintain the plant's health and encourages new growth.Toxiciteit
Cattleya amethystoglossa is not known to be toxic to pets or humans. However, it is always best to keep plants out of reach of pets and children to avoid any accidental ingestion.Aanvullend
Ensure good air circulation around the plant to prevent fungal infections. During the dormancy period, reduce watering and allow the plant to rest in cooler temperatures.BRENG EEN REVOLUTIE TEWEEG IN UW PLANTENVERZORGING
