Lepanthes tentaculata x Lepanthes saltatrix

A fascinating miniature hybrid crossing Lths. tentaculata with Lths. saltatrix, producing tiny, delicately layered leaves along upright ramicauls. The successive inflorescences emerge gracefully over the foliage, displaying jewel-like, intricately shaped flowers with elongated sepals that provide an enchanting and highly detailed focal point.

• Light: Medium to bright indirect light with 50–60% shade cloth; safeguard the diminutive leaves from any direct sun exposure.
• Temperature: 64–82°F (18–28°C); an adaptable intermediate grower that performs beautifully in terrariums or controlled indoor setups.
• Humidity: 75–90%; demands high, stable atmospheric moisture combined with gentle air movement to thrive.
• Watering: Water regularly to keep the medium consistently damp; ensure excellent drainage so the roots never stagnate.

Additional Notes

Thrives optimally when mounted on cork bark or grown in small net pots with premium sphagnum moss to showcase its compact, moss-like habit. This miniature-statured plant produces remarkably intricate blooms, shipping bare root and well-established to be gently rehydrated at an intermediate temperature before final placement.
