Liparis grossa

Liparis grossa is a tropical orchid plant that is native to Myanmar, Taiwan, and the Philippines, where they thrive in bright and filtered light, warm and high-humidity environments. It has long, evergreen leaves, and a long spike that produces small oranges flowers in fall as they mature. It is a lovely addition to your collection of orchid plants, especially if you have it displayed in a beautiful pot.

Liparis grossa is easy to grow and easy to care for once established. You can plant them in a pot with small bark, sand, and perlite and place them in an area where they can get enough sunlight to thrive. Allow the soil to dry before watering them, and make sure there is an excellent draining hole in the pot to prevent root rot.

Fertilizing them twice a week during their growing season using a balanced fertilizer will help them bloom into healthy ones.
