Description

Description

A highly ornamental miniature species native to Ecuador. It grows a single large orbicular leaf with a striking iridescent surface that varies from bronze-green to deep burgundy-purple depending on light conditions, and produces successive flowers directly over the leaf with acuminate star-like sepals and prominent fleshy bilobed petals at the center.

  • Light: Bright indirect light with 50–70% shade cloth; leaf iridescence intensifies with slightly lower light levels.
  • Temperature: 55–72°F (13–22°C); an Intermediate grower that benefits from good air circulation and stable temperatures.
  • Humidity: 75–90%; maintain consistently high humidity — ideal for terrariums or humid intermediate setups.
  • Watering: Water frequently to keep the medium evenly moist; avoid prolonged dryness, as Lepanthes roots are sensitive to dehydration.

Additional Notes

Best grown mounted on cork or in a small net pot with fine sphagnum moss. Its exceptionally ornamental iridescent foliage makes it as prized for its leaf as for its flowers. Plants are shipped bare root and well-established.
