Phragmipedium Brigitte Fortin

This exceptional slipper orchid hybrid showcasing the artistry of orchid breeding and masterfully combining distinctive characteristics that make it a prized specimen for discerning orchid collectors and enthusiasts.

  • Light: Prefers moderate, indirect light. Avoid direct sun, especially during the 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 well-draining growing media, maintaining consistent soil moisture. The potting medium should never be allowed to dry out completely.

Additional Notes

  • Floral Characteristics: The flowers display striking deep burgundy-red petals with rich crimson tones and subtle texture variations. The prominent inflated pouch features intense red coloration with golden-orange spotted patterns in the interior.
