Phaius tankervilleae
A majestic terrestrial species native to the tropical and subtropical forests of Asia and the South Pacific, known for its imposing stature and lush, pleated foliage. It produces tall, erect inflorescences carrying numerous large, waxy, and intricately patterned blooms that provide a spectacular and long-lasting floral display.
- Light: Bright, indirect light; thrives in shaded conditions, avoiding intense midday sun to protect the broad leaves.
- Temperature: 60–82°F (16–28°C); prefers intermediate temperatures with stable, warm conditions during the active growing season.
- Humidity: 60–80%; consistent moisture in the air and substrate is essential to maintain vigorous growth and lush appearance.
- Watering: Keep the substrate consistently moist but well-drained, ensuring it never fully dries out; this species flourishes in damp, bog-like conditions.
Additional Notes
Best grown in a large, sturdy container using a rich, well-draining terrestrial potting mix to support its robust root system. Ships bare root; upon arrival, rehydrate in a shaded, intermediate-temperature environment before planting in your preferred substrate.
