Lepanthes Lita

A striking primary hybrid of Lths. tentaculata × Lths. calodictyon. It inherits the bold reticulated leaf pattern of both parents — large orbicular leaves with a dark green grid over a burgundy-purple background and a crenulate margin — while producing successive flowers with the characteristic tentaculate filaments of Lths. tentaculata.

• Light: Bright indirect light with 50–70% shade cloth; avoid direct sun, which can damage the ornamental foliage.
• Temperature: 60–78°F (16–26°C); an Intermediate-Warm grower that tolerates warmer conditions than most Lepanthes.
• Humidity: 75–90%; maintain consistently high humidity — ideal for warm terrarium setups.
• Watering: Water frequently to keep the medium evenly moist; avoid prolonged dryness, as Lepanthes roots are sensitive to dehydration.

Additional Notes

A compact plant (approx. 3–4 cm) best grown in a small net pot with fine sphagnum moss. Its ornamental reticulated foliage and tentaculate flowers make it one of the most visually distinctive Lepanthes hybrids for terrarium culture. Plants are shipped bare root and well-established.
