The cranefly orchids genus, often referred to as 'Crane-fly Orchids,' requires a unique blend of care conditions. Basic Care Needs involve low to moderate light, well-drained soil, and to be kept moderately moist. Water requirements change between growing and dormant seasons. Common Challenges include threat of root rot, aphids, and slugs, particularly in wet conditions. Seasonal considerations involve a leafless winter dormancy, where decreased watering is paramount, and a growth surge in spring needing increased moisture and low to moderate light exposure.
