Acianthera strupifolia Culture

Successful cultivation of the charming Acianthera strupifolia. Here are some important cultural tips to ensure its thriving growth:

Light: Acianthera strupifolia appreciates bright, indirect light. Filtered sunlight or a lightly shaded location is ideal. Avoid direct sunlight, which can scorch its delicate leaves.

Temperature: To mimic its natural habitat, aim for warm daytime temperatures between 20-28°C (68-82°F) and slightly cooler nights around 15-20°C (59-68°F).

Humidity: High humidity is essential for Acianthera strupifolia. Maintain humidity levels between 60-80% using humidifiers, pebble trays, or by grouping plants together.

Watering: Keep the substrate consistently moist, but avoid waterlogging. Frequent, light waterings are generally preferred. Allow the substrate to dry slightly between waterings to prevent root rot.

Substrate: A well-draining substrate, such as a mix of fine bark, perlite, and sphagnum moss, is suitable for Acianthera strupifolia.
