This orchid prefers a well-draining soil mix, such as a combination of peat and bark. The soil should retain moisture but also allow for good air circulation around the roots. Ensure the pot has adequate drainage to prevent waterlogging.Kunstmest
Use a balanced orchid fertilizer with a nutrient composition of 20-20-20. Fertilize the plant every two weeks during the growing season. Dilute the fertilizer to half the recommended strength to avoid over-fertilization.Verpotten

Propagation is typically done through division. When repotting, you can divide the pseudobulbs, ensuring each division has at least one healthy pseudobulb and root system. Plant the divisions in separate pots with fresh orchid mix.Snoeien
