About this plant
The Epidendrum Radicans orchid is native to Colombia and is a suitable choice for orchid enthusiasts, from beginners to collectors.
Epidendrum orchids are hardy and can bloom several times throughout the year. The plants adapt remarkably easily to any conditions. Epidendrum prefers warmer temperatures but will tolerate temperatures as low as 10 °C.
Height including pot: approximately 55–60 cm
This variety reblooms repeatedly on the same flower spike—do not remove spikes with spent flowers.
Quick care guide
- Light: plenty of light; gentle morning sun or bright, filtered light.
- Watering: water when the surface of the potting mix begins to dry; do not allow water to stagnate.
- Temperature: it can stay outdoors in summer after acclimatization, but protect it from prolonged cold and frost.
- Potting mix and stems: use an airy mix with good drainage; do not cut aerial roots or green stems.
