Lepanthes eciliata
A striking miniature species from the Andean cloud forests. It grows a narrow lanceolate leaf with prominent longitudinal venation, and produces successive flowers with broad, concave, hood-forming translucent sepals and disproportionately large, fleshy bilobed petals emerging prominently at the center.
- Light: Bright indirect light with 50–70% shade cloth; avoid direct sun, which can damage the delicate foliage.
- Temperature: 55–72°F (13–22°C); an Intermediate grower that benefits from good air circulation and stable temperatures.
- Humidity: 75–90%; maintain consistently high humidity — ideal for terrariums or humid intermediate setups.
- Watering: Water frequently to keep the medium evenly moist; avoid prolonged dryness, as Lepanthes roots are sensitive to dehydration.
Additional Notes
Best grown mounted on cork or in a small net pot with fine sphagnum moss. Its narrow habit and unusually showy petals make it a distinctive addition to any terrarium collection. Plants are shipped bare root and well-established.
