Cultivating this remarkable orchid is a joy for both novice and experienced growers. Here are some tips to help you cultivate and care for your Lc. Jalapa 'Ruben's Pick' 4N x C. Chocolate Drop AM/AOS:

Lighting: Provide your orchid with bright, indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight, as it can scorch the delicate petals. Place the orchid near a north or east-facing window, or use artificial grow lights to ensure adequate illumination.

Temperature and Humidity: These hybrids thrive in warm and humid conditions. Aim for a temperature range between 65°F to 80°F (18°C to 27°C) during the day and slightly cooler temperatures at night. Maintain humidity levels around 50% to 70% by using a humidifier or placing the orchid on a tray filled with water and pebbles.

Watering and Fertilization: Orchids prefer a consistent watering schedule. Allow the potting medium to dry slightly between waterings, but avoid overwatering, as it can lead to root rot. Use room temperature or lukewarm water and ensure that excess water drains out of the pot. Fertilize your orchid regularly with a balanced orchid fertilizer to provide essential nutrients for healthy growth and abundant blooms.

Potting and Medium: These hybrids do well in a well-draining potting medium that allows air circulation around the roots. Orchid bark mix, sphagnum moss, or a combination of both are suitable options. Repot the orchid every one to two years, or when the potting medium begins to break down.

Air Circulation: Good air circulation is crucial for preventing the growth of fungal or bacterial diseases. Avoid placing the orchid in stagnant air and ensure proper ventilation around the plant.

This is a blooming size in a 4" clay pot about 1 to 2 years to bloom, grown from seed, limited!.

With proper care and attention, your Lc. Jalapa 'Ruben's Pick' 4N x C. Chocolate Drop AM/AOS will reward you with exquisite, long-lasting blooms and a remarkable presence in your home or greenhouse. This hybrid orchid is a true treasure for any orchid enthusiast or collector, and it will undoubtedly become the centerpiece of your orchid collection.
