How to care for Spotted Lady's Slipper

Water

Spotted Lady's Slipper should be watered regularly, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings.

Soil

Spotted Lady's Slipper loves a well-draining soil. Perlite and vermiculite help with drainage, while coco coir adds organic matter, so a good potting soil mix will have all three. You can improve store-bought soil by adding some perlite to it.
