IDENTIFY PESCATORIA COELESTIS

 Pescatoria coelestis is found in Ecuador and Colombia, where it grows epiphytic in extremely wet forests with a heavy night fog at an altitude of 900 to 1900 meters above sea level.

Pescatoria coelestis care and culture

 It is a tufted, small to medium sized, warm to cool growing epiphyte without pseudobulbs, with 6 to 10, oblong-lanceolate, acuminate, up to 30-35 cm long leaves arranged in a fan shape.

 The Sky-Blue Pescatoria blooms in the spring and summer on a stout, shorter than the leaves, 10 to 25 cm long, ascending, sheathed stalk with a solitary, fleshy, long-lived flower. The flowers are fragrant, from blue to violet, about 8-10 cm in diameter.

PESCATORIA COELESTIS CARE AND CULTURE

 Cultural information should only be used as a guide, and should be to be adapted to suit you. Your physical location; where you grow your plants, how much time you have to devote to their care, and many other factors, will need to be taken into account. Only then can you decide on the cultural methods that best suit you and your plants.

Light:

 Pescatoria coelestis can grow in bright scattered light. The ideal location is considered to be the east and south-east orientation windows, however, if there are none in the apartment, you can use western or very bright northern windows. If the western or southern windows were chosen for the location of the plant, then during the period from May to early September, the orchid should be protected from the influence of too bright day and evening sun - put behind a curtain (for example, on a table near a window) or into the shade of other plants.

Pescatoria coelestis care and culture

Temperature:

 This type of orchid refers to a moderate thermal requirements, however, it also grows well at lower temperatures. It is recommended that the orchids be kept under the following conditions throughout the year: day temperature is 16-25 ° C, night 12-16 ° C. For the successful cultivation at home, it is necessary that the night temperature of the content is always at 4 ° C (ideally 8-10 ° C) lower than the daytime temperature.

Humidity:

 The Sky-Blue Pescatoria needs relatively high humidity, not less than 60%, ideally 70-80%. Too dry air negatively affects the development of the plant - its growth is inhibited, and deformations in the form of an accordion appear on the leaves.

Substrate, growing media and repotting:

 Pescatoria coelestis is grown mainly only in pots or hanging baskets. The used substrate must be sufficiently moisture-intensive, so in its quality, pure moss sphagnum, claydite or a mixture of expanded clay with coconut chips, bark of coniferous trees and charcoal is best.

Watering:

 Watering this kind of orchids directly depends on the overall temperature of the content, the higher it is, the more often and abundant it is necessary to water. When watering orchids in pots, it is necessary to remember that excess water during watering should flow freely out of the pot, as the stagnation of water both inside the pot and in its pallet can very quickly lead to rotting of the roots and the lower part of the plant. The substratum between the irrigations should dry relatively well, but do not dry out completely.

Fertilizer:

 Throughout the year, this type of orchid is fertilized for every second watering in the usual fertilizer concentration indicated on the package. In addition to the usual root top dressing, it is also recommended to produce a foliar dressing, when a very much diluted fertilizer is sprayed on the outer part of the plant.

Rest period:

 Pescatoria coelestis does not need a rest period to stimulate flowering. Refusal to flowering can be due to too hot content of the plant, the lack of sufficient differences between night and day temperatures or poor lighting.
