Water regularly. These orchids do best in a free-draining mix made of coarse bark. This is available by the bag at your garden centre (look for orchid mix). Plants can be repotted every one to two years.
All orchids respond to feeding and these are no exception. Use a high-potassium liquid orchid food such as the Thrive Orchid Liquid Plant Food to encourage flowering. Apply the dilute fertiliser every two weeks or according to instructions on the container. Reduce feeding if conditions are cold.
As these plants live indoors for a long time it is important to keep them dust free. Wipe over the broad leaves with a damp cloth to remove any dust or grime.
Also watch for mealy bug, a white sap-sucking insect that feeds in the base of the plant, under leaves or that may infest the roots. Wipe away any that are seen and apply spray oil such as Eco-Oil or an insecticide registered for mealy bug. Repot and increase humidity and light levels.
