Description

A stunning Brazilian species renowned for its tall inflorescences bearing multiple fragrant flowers adorned with distinctive amethyst-purple spots and stripes on white to pale pink petals, creating a spectacular display that can last several weeks in spring and early summer.

  • Light: Bright, filtered light with 30-50% shade cloth. Tolerates some direct morning sun but protect from intense midday rays.
  • Temperature: Warm grower. Daytime 75-85°F (24-29°C), nighttime 60-68°F (16-20°C). Appreciates 10-15°F day-night differential for optimal flowering.
  • Humidity: 60-80% with excellent air circulation. Maintain humidity through trays, humidifiers, or terrarium setups while ensuring constant air movement.
  • Watering: Water thoroughly when medium approaches dryness, typically every 4-6 days during active growth. Reduce slightly after flowering but never allow complete drying.

Additional Notes

Endemic to Brazil's coastal regions at 200-900 meters elevation. Thrives in medium to coarse bark mix with perlite, or can be mounted on cork or tree fern with sphagnum moss base.
