The Anoectochilus roxburghii "White Gold" is a striking terrestrial jewel orchid prized for its deep, velvety bronze-to-black foliage and intricate shimmering white-gold veins. Native to Asian tropical forests, it thrives in high humidity and is a popular choice for terrariums, vivariums, and dedicated indoor collections.
Light: Prefers low to medium, indirect light. Avoid direct sunlight, which will scorch and bleach the leaves. Grow lights should be kept roughly 2 feet away.
Water & Media: Keep the substrate consistently moist but not waterlogged. Water with filtered or pure water to prevent mineral buildup. A loose, well-draining mix (like sphagnum moss or a fine orchid bark blend) works best.
Humidity & Airflow: Thrives in 60–80% humidity and requires good airflow to prevent fungal issues.
