A household name in the Western plant community, Macodes is also extremely popular for its look and ease of care. Notably, these jewel orchids feature silvery or golden veins that not only shimmer but glow (due to its gradating leaf colours). In the past, some species of this genus have been used to stimulate blood circulation (Macodes petola) or treat myopia (Macodes sanderiana).

Care Guide

How to Care for Jewel Orchid Macodes Petola?

As a tropical plant from Southeast Asia, Macodes does best in warm, humid environments, but with its thick stems and less delicate roots, these plants can thrive in a variety of conditions, as long as these conditions are relatively stable. Like many other jewel orchids, they don’t like to sit in moisture, and it’s best to let them dry out.
