These framework conditions define the ideal location

Before you choose the location for an orchid, please take a look at the light and temperature conditions in the habitat. The majority of the flowers thrive as epiphytes in the Rainforest. Here they are enthroned high on the branches of giants of the jungle, with the thick canopy of leaves softening the strong sun. The better the location on the windowsill simulates these framework conditions, the more opulent the blossoms:

  • Bright location without direct sun at noon
  • In rooms no more than 1 meter away from the window
  • Warmth Temperatures in summer by 25 degrees, in winter not below 18 degrees Celsius
  • A high humidity of 60 to 90 percent

The west and east window sills are perfect for floral displays. If a curtain or awning catches the midday sun in summer, the south window sill is also an option. In order to offer orchids tropical humidity at the same time, we recommend a bright window seat in the

bathroom. On the other hand, only a few shade-tolerant orchid species are really equipped for a low-light location at the north window.

Tips

In the middle of living rooms, your most beautiful orchids are impressively presented in one terrarium. Equipped with the right accessories, the typical, warm and humid rainforest climate is simulated here. You can easily compensate for the lack of light with fluorescent tubes 865 in daylight quality, such as the L 36 Watt 865 - Osram 36W.
