Gram is a genus of large, epiphytic orchids known for their impressive size and showy flowers. The basic care needs for gram include bright, indirect light and a well-draining potting mix that allows for adequate air circulation around the roots. Gram requires consistent moisture during growth periods, yet it should not be left soggy. The ideal temperature range for gram is warm, mimicking their tropical habitat. Common challenges include spider mites, scale insects, and root rot if overwatered. Seasonally, gram benefits from higher humidity and more frequent watering in the growing season (spring and summer) and a reduction in watering during dormancy (autumn and winter).
