Maxillaria huebschii form red

A selected color form of Maxillaria huebschii native to Ecuador, producing multiple large, showy flowers simultaneously on erect scapes among broad, glossy lanceolate leaves. The wide sepals and petals display a striking bicolor pattern, with a bold wash over white contrasting margins, and a prominent golden-yellow trilobed lip with rich reddish markings.

• Light: Bright indirect light with 50–70% shade cloth; avoid direct sun exposure.
• Temperature: 45–65°F (7–18°C); a cool grower that requires consistently low temperatures and good air movement.
• Humidity: 70–90%; high humidity is essential for healthy growth and prolific blooming.
• Watering: Keep the mix evenly moist without allowing it to dry out completely; avoid stagnant water at the roots.
