Descripción

A rare Andean cloud forest species from Ecuador and Colombia, prized for its intricate, star-shaped flowers with a velvety, intricately veined lip that mimics an insect — one of the most fascinating and seldom-cultivated genera in the orchid family.

  • Light: Medium to moderate indirect light; 60–70% shade cloth. Avoid any direct sun exposure.
  • Temperature: Cool grower. Daytime 54–63°F (12–17°C), nights 45–54°F (7–12°C). Consistent cool temperatures are essential; does not tolerate heat.
  • Humidity: 80–90% relative humidity at all times, with constant gentle air movement to prevent rot.
  • Watering: Keep evenly moist; never allow to dry out. Use soft, low-mineral water when possible.

Additional Notes

Best grown mounted or in small pots with live sphagnum moss. Requires stable cool, humid conditions year-round and is best suited for experienced growers with a dedicated cool-growing setup. Native to páramo and upper cloud forest zones above 2,500 m in the Andes.
