Miltonidium Jumbo Swan

Miltonidum is a intergeneric hybrid of Miltonia x Oncidium. They prefer moderate temperatures and low to moderate light. It is better not to water the orchid daily and it is better to wait till the medium has nearly dried up. In warm dry conditions 2-3 times weekly watering is necessary. In moist and cool conditions, watering can be as less as once a week. Humidity is not a must if watered frequently. However like oncidiums it is best to have a humidity higher than 50%. NPK 30:10:10 is recommended for the orchid.
