A medium epiphyte from the cloud forests of Ecuador, producing long, densely flowered pendant racemes from the base of its upright lanceolate leaves. The amber-brown, concave sepals spread in a characteristic three-pronged formation, each flower centered by vivid golden-yellow petals that glow warmly against the rich, translucent tones of the inflorescence.

• Light: Bright indirect light with 40–60% shade cloth; avoid harsh direct sun.
• Temperature: 54–72°F (12–22°C); an Intermediate grower. Tolerates brief dips to 50°F (10°C) if kept dry.
• Humidity: 70–90%; maintain consistently high humidity with good air movement.
• Watering: Water thoroughly and allow the medium to approach dryness between waterings; avoid prolonged root saturation.

Additional Notes

Well suited to a small pot with free-draining bark mix or mounted on cork. A slight nighttime temperature drop encourages blooming. Plants are shipped bare root and well-established.
