关于苏卡库利兜兰（Paphiopedilum sukhakulii）

Paphiopedilum sukhakulii is a Thai native slipper orchid whose spotted green petals spread horizontally into a single bloom up to 14cm across. Here are its key features and growing tips.

开始养护苏卡库利兜兰（Paphiopedilum sukhakulii）前需要了解的7件事

1. 1Bright, Indirect Light

   Keep the plant out of direct sun and place it in bright, filtered light, such as behind a sheer curtain. The leaves scorch easily, so extra shade is needed during the strong sun of summer.

2. 2Watering: Avoid Full Drying

   Water thoroughly once the surface of the mix starts to dry, and avoid letting it dry out completely. At the same time, guard against overwatering, since soggy roots can lead to rot, so keep air circulating around the pot.

3. 3Soil: Balance Drainage and Moisture

   In the wild, this terrestrial orchid grows on streamside forest floors, rooting into sandy soil and leaf mold. Pot it in a mix that both drains well and holds moisture, and don't let the mix dry out completely.

4. 4Repot After Flowering

   Repot after flowering has finished, once the growing medium starts to break down. When dividing the plant, handle the roots gently and make sure each new division keeps enough leaves and roots to stay healthy.

5. 5Seasonal Care Matters

   During the growing season from spring through autumn, maintain bright shade and adequate humidity, and in winter move the plant indoors to protect it from cold. Sudden temperature swings and dry air can both stress the plant.

6. 6Check the Leaves and Registration Certificate

   When selecting a plant, look for clear light-and-dark mottling on the leaves without discoloration or damage. As an Appendix I species, it must come with a registration certificate under Japan's Act on Conservation of Endangered Species (種の保存法), so always confirm the certificate when acquiring one.

7. 7A Standout 14cm Bloom

   Each flower stem produces a single large bloom up to about 14cm across. Avoiding direct sun and sudden changes in environment while it's in flower helps the bloom last longer.
