Check out this gorgeous Phragmipedium Eric Young growing at Ecuagenera! It's a special orchid, a hybrid of Phragmipedium longifolium alba and Phragmipedium besseae flavum. 

  • Light: flourishes in environments with bright, indirect light. Shield it from direct sunlight to prevent leaf scorch and promote lush foliage.
  • Temperature: To replicate its natural conditions, maintain daytime temperatures between 20-25°C (68-77°F) and slightly cooler nights at 12-18°C (54-64°F).
  • Humidity: This orchid prefers high humidity levels, ideally between 60-80%. Use humidifiers or humidity trays to maintain these conditions.
  • Watering: Ensure the potting medium remains consistently moist but not soggy. Utilize a well-draining mix to prevent root rot and water frequently to support its growth cycle.

Additional Notes

  • Features striking crimson to scarlet blooms with golden undertones and velvety textures. The inflated pouch and curved petals feature intricate venation patterns. Sequential flowers on strong stems provide an impressive, long-lasting display
  • As these are seed-grown, the flowers may show some variation.
