Mormodes is known for its exotic and striking blooms, primarily found in tropical environments. This epiphytic genus flourishes with bright indirect light, warm temperatures, and high humidity, preferring well-draining medium similar to an orchid mix. Common challenges include susceptibility to pests like spider mites and issues with root rot due to overwatering. Seasonally, mormodes requires less water during its dormant period, typically in the cooler months, and may benefit from increased humidity and warmth during active growth in the spring and summer.
