This distinctive hybrid carries airy sprays of white flowers accented with golden-yellow tips and ruffled yellow lips. Slender, twisting floral segments give each bloom a playful, sculptural shape.

Light: Bright, filtered light with gentle morning sun. An east-facing window or lightly shaded greenhouse position is suitable; protect from harsh midday sun.
Temperature: Warm-growing; aim for daytime temperatures of 75–85°F (24–29°C) and nights of 65–70°F (18–21°C). Avoid cold drafts and prolonged chilling.
Humidity: Aim for 60–80% humidity with steady, gentle air circulation to prevent stagnant moisture around the plant.
Watering: Water thoroughly during active growth, allowing an airy orchid mix to approach dryness between waterings. Reduce frequency when growth slows, but avoid prolonged drought or persistently soggy roots.

Additional Notes:

Use a snug, well-drained pot with an open bark-based mix, and provide a light stake if flower stems need support. Retain firm, healthy older canes as nutrient reserves. Repot when new roots begin to develop, and apply diluted orchid fertilizer during active growth.
