Phragmipedium Predator

This exceptional slipper orchid hybrid is a cross between Phragmipedium richteri and Phragmipedium humboldtii, showcasing the artistry of orchid breeding and masterfully combining distinctive characteristics.

  • Light: Prefers moderate, indirect light. Avoid direct sun, especially during midday hours, as this can easily scorch the leaves.
  • Temperature: Thrives in intermediate temperatures. Ideal daytime temperatures should range between 18-24°C (65-75°F), with a slight drop at night to 13-18°C (55-65°F).
  • Humidity: Requires high humidity, ideally between 60-80%. Excellent air circulation is still essential to prevent fungal issues, especially in humid conditions.
  • Watering: This hybrid demands consistent moisture. Proper care involves using a well-draining growing medium. The potting medium should never be allowed to dry out completely.

Additional Notes

  • Floral Characteristics: The flowers of Phragmipedium Predator are celebrated for their dramatic and elegant appearance. It inherits the long, graceful petals of its parent, Phragmipedium humboldtii, and the flower shape of Phragmipedium richteri. Successive blooming is common in this hybrid.
