Lepanthes golondrina
A remarkable miniature species from the Andean cloud forests. It produces large, showy flowers with a broad flat hood-like dorsal sepal, wide lateral sepals curving downward into acuminate tips forming an open V-shape, a finely granular iridescent surface, and a complex bilobed labellum 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
A truly miniature plant (approx. 3 cm) whose flowers are disproportionately large for its size. Best grown mounted on cork or in a small net pot with fine sphagnum moss. Plants are shipped bare root and well-established.
