A naturally occurring hybrid from Ecuador, producing branched inflorescences with large, richly patterned flowers. The lanceolate, recurved sepals and petals surround a prominent trilobed lip with a well-defined central callus, giving each bloom a bold and dramatic presence.
-
Light: Bright indirect light with 50–60% shade cloth; avoid direct sun, which can scorch the foliage.
-
Temperature: 54–75°F (12–24°C); an intermediate grower that benefits from moderate day-to-night temperature differentials.
-
Humidity: 60–80%; good air circulation helps prevent fungal issues and promotes healthy growth.
-
Watering: Water thoroughly and allow the mix to approach dryness between waterings; never allow the roots to remain waterlogged.
