Once it has flowered it will not be difficult to keep it that way throughout the year. Make sure to maintain high humidity, which is essential throughout the year.
It is recommended to spray it daily at about 15 cm from the leaves, you can also place the pot on a plate with gravel, taking care that the roots do not have direct contact with water.
Clean the leaves with a damp cloth , preferably with rainwater. This will ensure that there are no white spots on the leaves.
