light
Jewel Orchids prefer medium light but can tolerate low light. Direct sun will cause the leaves to burn.
soil
Plant in all-purpose potting soil or create your own terrestrial mix containing 2-3 parts potting mix, 1 part vermiculite, and 1/2 part worm castings.
water
Water when the top 2-3 inches of soil are dry. Cut back on watering in the winter to avoid root rot. Do not allow to completely dry out.
fertilizer
Fertilize with an orchid specific fertilizer to promote blooms.
tips and troubleshooting
