Introducing the mesmerizing Encyvola Jairak Treasure 'Brown Bird' orchid, a remarkable hybrid cross between the elegant Encyclia Phoenicea and the charming Brassavola Little Stars.

Encyvola Jairak Treasure 'Brown Bird' orchid, where superb dark flowers adorned with a contrasting large pink lip steal the spotlight. Each bloom is a masterpiece of nature's design, captivating with its beauty and grace.

Drawing from its Brassavola nodosa lineage, this hybrid inherits traits that make it a delight to cultivate. Similar to its parent, Encyvola Jairak Treasure 'Brown Bird' prefers to have its roots dry out between watering sessions. Avoiding overly moist conditions is key to keeping this orchid thriving, just as B. nodosa hybrids demand.

As the red-wine colored blooms unfold, they reveal a stunning contrast against the backdrop of leaves adorned with a rich red pigment, adding depth and intrigue to its overall appearance. This orchid is a testament to the artistry of nature, combining captivating colors and textures to create an unforgettable botanical masterpiece.

Cultivating this botanical gem brings an enchanting touch to any indoor garden or orchid collection. To ensure the flourishing beauty of your Encyvola Jairak Treasure 'Brown Bird', here are some essential cultivating tips:

  1. Light Requirements: Provide bright, indirect sunlight to mimic its natural habitat. Avoid direct sunlight, especially during the hottest part of the day, as it can scorch the delicate petals.

  2. Temperature: Maintain a moderate to warm temperature range, ideally between 65°F to 80°F (18°C to 27°C) during the day, and slightly cooler at night. Protect the orchid from drafts or sudden temperature fluctuations.

  3. Humidity: Aim for a humidity level of around 50% to 70%. Misting the leaves occasionally can help create a humid environment, especially in drier climates or heated indoor spaces.

  4. Watering: Water your Encyvola Jairak Treasure 'Brown Bird' orchid thoroughly when the potting mix feels slightly dry to the touch. Ensure proper drainage to prevent waterlogging, which can lead to root rot. It's better to water less frequently than to overwater.

  5. Potting Mix: Use a well-draining orchid potting mix consisting of materials like bark, perlite, and charcoal. Repotting may be necessary every couple of years to refresh the growing medium and accommodate the orchid's root growth.

  6. Fertilization: Feed your orchid with a balanced orchid fertilizer diluted to half-strength every two to four weeks during the growing season (spring to early autumn). Reduce or cease fertilization during the winter months when growth slows down.

  7. Air Circulation: Ensure good air circulation around the plant to prevent the onset of fungal diseases and encourage healthy growth. Gentle airflow can be achieved with the help of a small fan positioned nearby.
