Andinia erepsis

Andinia erepsis (Luer & Hirtz) Karremans & S.V.Uribe, first described in Phytotaxa in 2017, is a rare and scientifically significant miniature orchid from Ecuador's intermediate cloud forests. At just 4 cm, this tiny epiphyte is a true collector's treasure — compact, fascinating, and perfectly suited for terrarium cultivation.

Care Guide

  • Light: Bright, indirect light — filtered sunlight is ideal; avoid intense direct sun to prevent leaf scorch
  • Temperature: Intermediate 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 water-filled pebble trays work well
  • Watering: Keep substrate consistently moist without waterlogging; a well-draining mix with frequent watering is key
  • Plant size: Approximately 4 cm

A recently described species and a standout find for any serious collection, Andinia erepsis is carefully cultivated in Ecuador by Ecuagenera, bringing this botanical rarity within reach of orchid lovers worldwide.
