It grows very well if the pot is placed at a bright window, at which it receives little or no direct rays of the sun. An east-facing window is ideal, and shaded windows from the south or west are acceptable locations. Temperature - in Phalaenopsis, it is recommended between 16-18 degrees Celsius at night and 21-29 degrees Celsius during the day. Although higher temperatures lead to faster vegetative growth, increased humidity and air circulation are absolutely necessary if the temperature is elevated. *The bowl in the picture is for presentation.

Since it has no specialized organs to retain fluids, the plant should never dry out. The orchid should be watered abundantly, and then left until the soil dries. When it is very hot and the humidity is low, the soil can dry from one day to the next; in a greenhouse, in a cold climate, this can happen once every 10 days. Phalaenopsis is watered only in the morning, so that the leaves begin to dry out by nightfall, to prevent rotting. Humidity - is important for the Phalaenopsis orchid. It is recommended that it be between 50-80%. At home, place the pot in a tray partially filled with water, on a layer of gravel so that the bottom of the pot does not reach the water level.
