Caring for the Phalaenopsis Cushion orchid requires attention to detail. It thrives in a well-lit area, preferably with indirect sunlight, as direct exposure can harm the delicate petals.

Regular watering is essential, with a balanced approach to prevent overwatering or dehydration. A recommended watering frequency is once every 7 to 10 days, allowing the roots to dry out slightly between waterings.
To promote healthy growth, it is recommended to fertilize the orchid every two weeks with a balanced orchid fertilizer, diluting the solution according to the manufacturer's instructions.
