Kappies are terrestrial orchids requiring specific care to thrive. They prefer moderate to bright, indirect light and consistent moisture, without being waterlogged. A warm, humid environment with good air circulation is ideal, with a slight drop in temperature at night. They thrive in well-draining, organically rich soil. Common challenges include root rot, fungal diseases, and pests like aphids. Seasonal considerations involve reducing watering during dormancy in winter and ensuring adequate humidity in summer.
