Maxillaria carinulata
A floriferous epiphyte native to Ecuador, producing multiple star-shaped flowers simultaneously on erect scapes. The spreading sepals and petals frame a prominent, fleshy lip with an ornamental column, creating a refined and eye-catching cluster display.
- Light: Bright indirect light with 50–70% shade cloth; avoid direct sun, which can stress the foliage.
- Temperature: 55–72°F (13–22°C); an intermediate grower that benefits from stable conditions and good air circulation.
- Humidity: 60–80%; consistent humidity supports vigorous growth and reliable blooming.
- Watering: Water thoroughly and allow the mix to approach dryness between waterings; avoid prolonged saturation at the roots.
Additional Notes
Ships bare root and well-established — pot promptly upon arrival in fine bark mix and water generously to rehydrate the roots. Best grown in a standard pot with good drainage.
