While the blooms are not the main attraction for these plants (their foliage is), they do add an extra touch of beauty once a year, usually winter and early spring. This is an easy indoor plant to care for. A mature Jewel Orchid that is several years old and has received good care will eventually produce multiple growths and spread out.
When it's time for the plant to flower, the growths will each produce a flowering spike that grows upwards quickly. Once ready the flower buds will open and show off many little white flowers which certainly create a lasting impression. Keep the plant away from any harsh sunlight that filters through during the day.
Comes in a 4” nursery pot. It can handle low light. Water the plant well and then wait until it's drying out before watering again.
Available in the following packaging based on your preference: Nursery Pot - Standard plastic 4-inch planter pot that can be placed inside a larger pot or left as is until it outgrows it. Valentina Terracotta Pot 5" - a beautiful molded terracotta pot that is porous and fire glazed to allow plant roots to breathe; color works well with any decor and will develop a beautiful patina color over time. Includes matching dish underneath to catch water drainage and protect surfaces.
Watering: To water a Jewel Orchid (Ludisia discolor) effectively, follow these tips: Consistency: Keep the soil consistently moist but not soggy. Jewel Orchids prefer a humid environment and regular watering. Check the Soil: Water when the top inch of soil feels dry to the touch.
Avoid letting the soil dry out completely. Our moisture meter will keep the guessing out of watering. Watering Method: Water thoroughly until it drains out of the bottom of the pot.
Discard any excess water that collects in the saucer to prevent root rot. Seasonal Adjustments: Water more frequently during the growing season (spring and summer) and reduce watering in the dormant period (fall and winter). Humidity: Maintain high humidity levels around the plant by using a humidity tray, misting, or placing it near a humidifier.
Proper watering will keep your Jewel Orchid healthy and vibrant. Looking for more plant goodies?
