Sobralia dichotoma
Successful cultivation of Sobralia dichotoma, a remarkable species within the Orchidaceae family, requires replicating its natural habitat conditions. Below we give you some tips for growing it:
- Light: thrives under bright, indirect light. It is adapted to filtered sunlight, typical of its natural understory habitat.
- Temperature: This species prefers warm to intermediate temperatures, with daytime ranges of 20-28°C (68-82°F) and nighttime temperatures of 15-20°C (59-68°F).
- Humidity: requires high relative humidity (60-80%). Use humidity trays, or frequent misting to maintain adequate moisture levels, especially in arid climates.
- Watering: This species demands consistent moisture due to its terrestrial growth habit. Watering should be frequent, ensuring the substrate remains damp but not waterlogged.
Additional Notes:
This is a terrestrial orchid known for its tall, reed-like stems and rare dichotomous branching. While individual blooms only last 1-2 days, flowers appear in succession throughout the year, ensuring a prolonged floral display.
