All the Details You Need to Know

The Story Behind This Plant

Native to the cool, temperate highlands of Asia, from the Himalayas to Australia, **Cymbidium Orchids** are often referred to as "boat orchids" due to the shape of their labellum (lip). Unlike many tropical epiphytic orchids, Cymbidiums are primarily terrestrial or lithophytic, growing in soil or on rocks. They thrive in cooler temperatures, which is key to initiating their spectacular winter and spring blooms. Their remarkable beauty and long-lasting flowers have made them incredibly popular and highly prized across the globe, symbolizing nobility and moral purity in many cultures.

How to Keep It Happy

Cymbidium Orchids flourish with specific care that mimics their highland origins. Here are some tips to encourage stunning blooms year after year:

  • **Light:** Requires bright, indirect light to bloom well. A few hours of morning sun is beneficial, but protect from harsh afternoon sun. South or east-facing windows are often ideal.
  • **Water:** Keep the potting medium consistently moist during the growing and flowering season (spring-fall). Reduce watering slightly in winter after flowering, allowing the top inch to dry out. Use distilled, rainwater, or filtered water if possible.
  • **Humidity:** Appreciates moderate to high humidity (40-60%). Regular misting or a pebble tray can help, especially in dry indoor environments.
  • **Soil/Potting:** Use a specialized orchid potting mix (bark-based). Repot every 1-2 years after flowering, only when necessary, to a slightly larger pot, allowing room for new growth.
  • **Temperature:** Crucial for blooming! Needs distinct day/night temperature differences. Warm days (70-80°F / 21-27°C) and cool nights (50-60°F / 10-16°C), especially in fall, are essential to trigger flower spikes.
  • **Feeding:** Fertilize regularly during the active growing season (spring through fall) with a balanced orchid fertilizer, diluted to half strength. Reduce feeding after flower spikes appear and during dormancy.
What to Do About Pests

While generally robust, Cymbidium Orchids can occasionally attract pests. Regular inspection will help keep your plant in prime condition.

Sun: Indirect

Orchids prefer bright light but can also tolerate medium light conditions. An ideal spot for them in your home would be in the middle of a room with a standard-sized window, where they can receive indirect sunlight. They can be positioned anywhere between the center of the room and the window. Keep in mind that the growth of orchids is influenced by the amount of light they receive.

Light: Medium - Bright

Orchids thrive when shielded from direct sunlight. Optimal conditions include filtered sunlight diffused through a sheer curtain, which is abundant in most homes. Ideal locations for orchids are those where they receive bright, indirect light for the majority of the day, promoting healthy growth and vibrant blooms.

Water: Keep evenly moist

Water your Cymbidium Orchid thoroughly, allowing water to drain freely from the bottom of the pot. Ensure that excess water is removed from the saucer or cache pot to prevent root rot. Let the top inch of the potting mix dry out before watering again, typically every 7-10 days. Avoid overwatering, as this can lead to fungal diseases and root rot.

Humidity: High

Orchids thrive in environments with high humidity levels. Provide them with a daily misting or as frequent as possible to maintain optimal moisture. Alternatively, placing them near a humidifier or within a terrarium can also create the humid conditions they prefer. While they can tolerate lower humidity levels, inadequate moisture may cause their leaves to develop dry, crunchy, or yellow edges, though they will generally survive.

Pet Friendly: Yes

While Orchids are generally safe to have around pets, it's still advisable to prevent your furry friends from nibbling on any houseplants, including Orchids, to avoid potential health risks.

Pro Tip

To mimic their natural environment, consider placing orchids near a window with sheer curtains to provide filtered sunlight. Additionally, periodically rotate the plant to ensure even exposure to light and promote symmetrical growth.

Your Complete Guide to Pot Sizes: What Size Should You Choose?

When selecting a pot for your plant, it's important to find the right size. But with all the different options out there, how do you know which one is best? We're here to help!

MyGreenscape's pot sizes chart is a great resource for finding your perfect fit. Our easy-to-read chart takes out all the guesswork and helps you quickly choose the right size for your plant.

Smaller pots are best for seedlings or small plants just starting out. These tend to be shallow but wide, allowing enough room for the roots of the young plant but not too much where they get overcrowded. Medium-sized pots are ideal when your plant has grown from its infancy and is ready for more space. These are deeper and wider than small pots, so that it can accommodate larger root systems - making sure your plant gets enough nourishment while still giving it breathing room. Large pots are top choice if you have an established plant in need of lots of space - think trees and large shrubs! The spacious depth and width allow plenty of room for deep root systems without struggling for air or light.

No matter what size you choose, MyGreenscape has got you covered, with our pot sizes chart guaranteeing you find the perfect fit every time!
