Andreettaea claviculata

Andreettaea claviculata (Luer & Hirtz) A.Doucette, first published in 2022, is a recently reclassified cool-growing miniature orchid from Ecuador. This tiny epiphyte enchants with its delicate, pendant flowers that dangle gracefully from a compact 4 cm plant — a perfect jewel for terrarium cultivation and a rewarding find for collectors who follow the latest botanical taxonomy.

Care Guide

  • Light: Bright, indirect light — filtered sunlight is ideal; avoid direct sun to prevent leaf scorch
  • Temperature: Cool conditions with daytime temps of 18–24°C (65–75°F) and cooler nights of 10–15°C (50–59°F)
  • Humidity: High humidity at 50–70%; humidifiers or damp pebble trays work well
  • Watering: Keep substrate consistently moist without waterlogging; a well-draining mix is essential to prevent root rot
  • Plant size: Approximately 4 cm

Cultivated with care in the Ecuadorian highlands by Ecuagenera, Andreettaea claviculata is a botanically current and visually captivating addition to any cool terrarium or miniature orchid collection.
