Miltonia x bluntii
 
Hi everyone!

I got a Miltonia x bluntii but I need a clarification, please:

I understood Miltonia needs cool temperature and bright light, but I also read that this kind of Miltonia needs warmer temperature and flowers in Summer.. :hmm:hmm

I can offer to my poor Miltonia, inside temperature, that means from 16°-17° C to 21°-22° C or outside with minimum 8° C (night).

Which is the most comfortable arrangement for this plant?

Thanks you!!!! :waving

Miltonia need warmth and not super bright light because of their light green colored leaves, they burn very easily. Miltionopsis are the cooler growing cousins of Miltonia. Miltonias do flower in summer. well, mine did.

Thanks Mike! :thanx:

I'm going to move the Miltonia (now in front of a southern window)... and hope I will see its flowers next Summer!!! :pray::pray::pray:

What about the temperature? The range I wrote is ok? And humidity?
