A captivating epiphyte native to the cloud forests of Ecuador, producing multiple simultaneous blooms on tall, slender, racemose scapes. Each flower bears three fully separate sepals with broad, coriaceous bases that taper abruptly into extraordinarily long, flexible, multi-directional tails — a wild, tangled silhouette that gives this species its unmistakable name.

• Light: 70–80% shade cloth; avoid direct midday sun. Bright, diffused light encourages blooming without stressing the plant.
• Temperature: 55–72°F (13–22°C) — Intermediate to Cool grower. Nighttime temperature drops help sustain blooming cycles. Avoid prolonged exposure above 75°F (24°C).
• Humidity: 80–90%; always pair with strong air movement to prevent rot and fungal issues.
• Watering: Water thoroughly and frequently, never allowing the medium to fully dry out. Use soft, low-mineral water (RO or rainwater preferred).

Additional Notes

Best grown in a fine bark or sphagnum moss mix in a small plastic or net pot with excellent drainage. Ships bare root and well-established, with a healthy root system ready to settle into its new home.
