Caring for your Rlc. Pamela Shell's Volcano Delight 'Volcano Queen'
The Rlc. Pamela Shell's Volcano Delight, commonly known as Volcano Queen, is a stunning Cattleya hybrid that combines vibrant colors with elegant form. To ensure your plant thrives and blooms beautifully, follow these care guidelines:
Light
Provide bright, indirect light to encourage vibrant flower colors and healthy growth. Aim for about 4 to 6 hours of filtered sunlight daily. Avoid direct harsh midday sun, which can scorch the leaves.
Temperature
This orchid enjoys intermediate to warm temperatures. Maintain daytime temperatures between 70°F and 85°F and nighttime temperatures around 55°F to 65°F. Avoid sudden drafts or cold spikes.
Watering
Water thoroughly when the growing medium feels nearly dry to the touch. Typically, watering once every 7 to 10 days works well, but adjust frequency depending on your home's humidity and temperature. Reduce watering slightly during winter months.
Humidity
Maintain humidity levels around 50% to 70%. To increase humidity, use a humidity tray or a room humidifier, especially in dry indoor environments. Good air circulation is essential to prevent fungal issues.
Potting Medium
Use a well-draining orchid mix, such as medium-grade fir bark with perlite and charcoal. Repot every 2 to 3 years or when the medium starts breaking down, ideally right after blooming ends.
Fertilizing
Feed your Volcano Queen with a balanced orchid fertilizer (20-20-20) diluted to half strength every two weeks during active growth (spring and summer). Reduce feeding frequency during fall and winter.
Additional Tips
Remove spent flower spikes to encourage new growth.
Monitor for common pests such as mealybugs and scale, and treat promptly.
Ensure the plant has good airflow to prevent disease.
With thoughtful care, your Rlc. Pamela Shell's Volcano Delight 'Volcano Queen' will reward you with spectacular blooms and lush foliage for years to come.
