Is your Stanhopea orchid looking rough with dry, brown leaf tips? Don’t panic! In this video, I explain why this happens and how to tell if your Stanhopea is healthy vs. in trouble.
Key Takeaways:
Normal Stress Signs – Dry leaf tips are environmental (low humidity, temperature swings) and WON’T kill the leaf!
Natural Leaf Shedding – Older leaves yellow at the base (near the pseudobulb) before falling—this is normal aging!
Buried Pseudobulbs? – Stanhopeas grow over old bulbs—this doesn’t mean rot!
Environmental Factors:
Low humidity (common in dry climates like mine in Southern Spain).
Extreme temps (too hot/cold outside their comfort zone).
No need to "fix" it—these leaves can survive over a year with tip damage!
Real Stanhopea Trouble Warning Signs:
Rotting pseudobulbs (soft, mushy, foul smell).
Rapid yellowing at leaf base (indicates natural shedding). #orchid #orchideen #orchideenpflege #orquideas #orchidee #tutorial #tips #tricks #tipsandtricks #beginners
