Vandachostylis Lou Sneary 'Shoutemo'

A hybrid of Neof. falcata 'Toyozakura' × Rhy. coelestis, combining a compact vandaceous habit with graceful sprays of star-shaped flowers. Slender petals and sepals frame a projecting lip, while curved nectar spurs add an elegant silhouette to each bloom above the strap-like foliage.

• Light: Bright filtered light with 50–60% shade cloth; avoid harsh midday sun, which can scorch the foliage.
• Temperature: 60–85°F (16–29°C); an intermediate to warm grower that appreciates mild nights and good air circulation.
• Humidity: 60–80% with steady airflow to support healthy aerial roots and prevent moisture from lingering around the crown.
• Watering: Water thoroughly when the roots approach dryness, allowing them to dry slightly between applications. Increase watering in warm weather, but avoid standing water and a constantly wet crown.

Additional Notes

Grow in a small slotted pot or basket with coarse orchid bark and excellent drainage, leaving room for the aerial roots. After arrival, rehydrate the roots thoroughly and establish the plant in bright filtered light with consistent humidity. Shipped bare root, well-established.
