VARIETIES: 	Paphiopedilum insigne is the easiest to grow.
		Mottle leaf
		Green leaf
				
MAXIMUM HEIGHT:	1 - 3 feet 

BLOOMING:	Mostly in the summer but occasionally during other times in the year.
		Each bloom can last 3 months.

TEMPERATURE: 	Paphiopedilum insigne can tolerate a minimum of 45°F (7°C)
		Mottle leaf - 45 - 55°F (7 - 13°C)
		Green leaf - keep around 65°F (18°C)

WATERING: 	Keep the soil moist at all times. Yet sure not the soil to stand in
		water. 

HUMIDITY:	Prefers high humidity. To achieve this, rest the pot on some stones in a dish
		filled with water. Make sure the water does not submerge the stones and touch
		the bottom of the pot. This will increase the humidity directly around the
		plant due to the evaporation of the water in the dish.

		strength.

SUBSTRATE:	Use a potting soil specially formulated for orchid plants. Be on the 
		lookout for the soil becoming moldy.
