Care Guide

  • Light: Bright, indirect light — filtered sunlight is ideal; avoid intense direct sun to prevent leaf scorch
  • Temperature: Cool conditions with daytime temps of 20–28°C (68–82°F) and slightly cooler nights of 15–20°C (59–68°F)
  • Humidity: High humidity at 70–80%; humidifiers or humidity trays are essential
  • Watering: Water regularly, allowing the substrate to dry slightly between waterings; a well-draining mix is vital to prevent root rot
  • Plant size: Approximately 10 cm

This named cultivar is carefully selected and cultivated in the Ecuadorian highlands by Ecuagenera. A wonderful addition for collectors who appreciate both botanical rarity and the charm of a personally named clone.
