CARE GUIDE

How to keep Eulophia Cucullata.

Water

Eulophia cucullata thrives with sufficient moisture but can withstand periods of drought. In the summer, water the plant weekly, and in the fall and winter, reduce watering to once every 10 days. To maintain humidity, especially in dry conditions, mist the plant regularly. Use water with a neutral pH for watering, and make sure to neutralize tap or rainwater before use.

Pruning

Eulophia cucullata is known for its distinctive tall flowers. To encourage growth and flowering, prune the plant in early spring by removing dead stems and spent flower spikes. Additionally, thinning out overcrowded areas will improve air circulation, prevent disease, and help maintain a healthy, vibrant plant with abundant blooms.
