Description
O. velutinum is a diminutive, slow growing epiphytic orchid. It likes bright, diffuse light so it
should be shaded behind a curtain or other plants. It also grows well grown under artificial light.
It prefers growing attached to a stick or cork. I water daily or every other day with reverse
osmosis or rainwater. We often use water from a fish tank(we use RO water for most of our fish)
with the added benefit of the fish waste providing a natural fertilizer. Since O. velutinum prefers
high humidity it is a great plant for growing in a terrarium or vivarium. Will be shipped with at
least two plantlets
