Preço: 18.00

A striking Central American species native to cloud forests of Costa Rica and Panama, prized for its waxy, long-lasting flowers borne on tall, reed-like canes. Its distinctive blooms feature a vivid, fleshy lip in sharp contrast to the narrow, reflexed tepals — one of the most visually distinctive species in the genus.

Light: Bright indirect light; 40–60% shade cloth. Tolerates some direct morning sun.

Temperature: Intermediate to warm grower. Daytime 65–80°F (18–27°C), nights 54–63°F (12–17°C).

Humidity: 60–80% relative humidity with good air movement around the canes.

Watering: Keep evenly moist during active growth; allow the mix to approach dryness between waterings in cooler months.

Additional Notes

Best grown in well-draining pots or baskets with coarse bark or a bark-perlite mix. Reed-stem Epidendrums grow vigorously and benefit from regular fertilization during the growing season. A collector’s favorite for its bold, architectural habit and exceptionally long-lasting flowers.
