How to look after Ludisia

Ludisia would enjoy a warm spot in bright indirect light and keep the soil slightly moist all the time. Provide higher humidity and don’t let the soil dry out completely.

If leaves drop it usually means underwatering, water by slowly increasing the amount of water until the leaves will start looking better.

This plant is non toxic to pets.

How should I water my Ludisia Discolor to maintain its health?: Keep the soil slightly moist at all times, but avoid waterlogging. If the leaves start dropping, it’s usually a sign of underwatering. Incrementally increase watering until the foliage regains its vigour.
Can I place my Jewel Orchid in a terrarium?: Yes, this orchid is terrarium-friendly due to its preference for higher humidity and indirect light. Ensure the terrarium is well-ventilated and not overly wet.
Is the Ludisia Discolor suitable for homes with pets?: Yes, the Ludisia Discolor is non-toxic to pets, making it a safe choice for plant enthusiasts who have animals at home.

☀️ Light

Ideal locations include well-lit bathrooms where humidity tends to be higher, or near east or south-facing windows with sheer curtains for filtered light.

Excellent package and delivery. The moss is ideal for forcing my Christmas bulb gifts and the potted plant is beautiful and a welcome addition to my collection. Will be returning and adding gift cards for Highland moss to my birthday and Christmas lists. An outstanding find and highly recommend.
