Lepanthes corrugata

A distinctive miniature species from the Andean cloud forests. It grows compact elliptic leaves with a notably corrugated, rugose texture, and produces successive small flowers on slender ramicauls with the intricate floral structure typical of the genus.

• Light: Bright indirect light with 50–70% shade cloth; avoid direct sun, which can scorch the textured foliage.
• 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.
