Phaiocalanthe Kryptonite 'Parkside'

[Rhonda Svoboda]

Hello Orchid Growers. I recently purchased this orchid and I am looking for cultural information as I am not finding anything on the web or @ AOS specific to this hybrid. The description lists its parantage as (Calanthe Rozel X Phaius tankervilliae). I have a Phaius but I am not familiar with Calanthe. Should I grow this based on the culture of the Parents? If so can anyone describe the cultual requirements for Calanthe Rozel? Any suggestions are appreciated.
Thanks

Calanthe and Phaius are terrestrial orchids that grow in mostly bright shade. Look up Phaius culture; it is the same.

Use a mix you would use for a Cymbidium, and don't let them dry out during the growing season. During the winter they need very much less water, but should not dry completely. Most people cut the all leaves off in early Spring before it begins growing again. The leaves usually look terrible by this time anyway.
