Here you get the Macodes Petola directly planted in a small plastic egg, the lid of which can be removed. Here the plant has the perfect environmental conditions! Also ideal as a gift for plant lovers.

Macodes Petola belongs to the so-called jewel orchids. These are orchids with striking leaves that grow in the ground (most orchids grow in the air - epiphytic). As a result, they are near the ground in the shade of other plants.

Therefore, for the care of Macodes Petola in the home, a semi-shaded to bright place without direct sun is sufficient, the substrate (a mixture of fine bark and Sphagnum moss) should always be kept slightly moist. Keeping in a glass or terrarium is particularly easy, because so the humidity is higher and less frequent watering is required.
