Bletia is a genus of terrestrial orchids often favored for their striking flowers and resilient growth habits. Basic care involves providing bright, indirect light and consistent moisture with well-draining soil, ensuring not to overwater. Temperature preferences vary, but generally, bletia enjoys intermediate to warm conditions. Common challenges include root rot from excessive watering, pest infestations such as scale insects, and fungal diseases. Seasonally, bletia may require reduced watering in winter and protection from intense summer sun. Adjust care to encourage dormancy or growth as needed for each season.
