Lepanthes tentaculata x Lepanthes telipogoniflora (rec.)

A floriferous hybrid of Lths. telipogoniflora × Lths. tentaculata, with Lths. telipogoniflora as the seed parent. The blooms inherit the elaborate, fringed petal appendages of Lths. telipogoniflora combined with the elongated tentacle-like tails and intricate lip structure of Lths. tentaculata, producing flowers of exceptional ornamental complexity for the genus.

• Light: Bright indirect light with 50–70% shade cloth; avoid direct sun exposure to protect the delicate foliage and ramicauls.
• Temperature: 55–72°F (13–22°C); an intermediate-warm grower that performs well under stable indoor conditions with moderate nighttime drops.
• Humidity: 75–90%; maintain consistently high moisture levels with good air movement to prevent fungal issues.
• Watering: Keep roots evenly moist; water frequently in small amounts and avoid prolonged dryness between waterings.

Additional Notes

Best grown mounted on cork bark with fine sphagnum moss, or in a small net pot in a humid enclosure. An excellent candidate for terrarium culture. Ships bare root, well-established.
