Rupicolous Laelia Care & Culture| Laelia Alaorii var Orlata #Carecollab

Hi Everyone! In today’s video I’m going to share how I care for Rupicolous Laelia’s. I only have one - so the one I’m showing you today is the Laelia Alaorii var. Orlata x sib. It’s a beautiful miniature orchid with gorgeous blooms. This is a Care Collaboration with: This orchid has high water requirements - I find that it needs a lot of water - more than standard cattleyas, seems like it’s on the oncidium requirement level. I’d speculate it’ because of its petite size - the canes will be smaller than a larger cattleya type. Light Requirements for this orchid are on the moderate end. Feeding occurs just like my other orchids. IG @nicoledeannaorchids Growing Conditions & Climate: Almost all orchids grown indoors Eastern Exposures (4-5 hours direct early morning sun) & LED Grow Lights - Most orchids grow under the lights - Only cool growers & orchids in bloom grow under my Eastern facing windows - Grow space doesn’t get any additional sunlight other than the LED’s Zone 7a - Humid Subtropical Products I use are linked below. *Disclaimer* I may earn a small commission on any of the Amazon Links that you use.
