The Macodes Petola Jewel Orchid (Baby) does not like a lot of light, so give her a shady spot. She has short roots and grows mainly horizontally, so she likes shallow pots, or even better the shallow soil of a terrarium or vivarium, and she’ll grow into an adult lady with your care. You will receive her in a care pot with airy soil, and if you’d like repot her be sure to choose orchid potting soil (which is different from regular soil) mixed 50/50 with moss, with hydro grains on the bottom, and avoid terracotta pots. This will ensure he roots get air and moisture without the stems rotting.
I ordered this beauty as a present. Plnts.com did not disappoint and I could easily gift the plant without any rehab-ing, etc. Their plants are always in stellar conditions!
It is a very slow grower, but the leaves are gorgeous
Amazing colours, came in pretty good condition. I am certainly in love with this one.

Everything about Jewel Orchid
Jewel Orchids differ from other Orchids because Jewel Orchids are grown for their outstanding foliage rather than the flowers. The main reason for this is that Jewel Orchids are terrestrials.
This means they grow in soil on the ground, whereas many other orchids are epiphytic and grow on trees. The unique growing conditions and habitat of Jewel Orchids have led to the evolution of striking foliage as a way to attract pollinators and compete with other plants for resources.
