Pleurothallis inflata
A small epiphytic species from the cloud forests of Ecuador, producing a single flower from the base of a broad, cordate leaf. The flower is characterized by an inflated, pouch-like synsepal that forms a rounded chamber, with a reduced dorsal sepal positioned above it.
-
Light: Bright indirect light with 50–65% shade cloth; avoid direct sun, which can scorch the broad, glossy leaf surface.
-
Temperature: 50–68°F (10–20°C); a Cool to Intermediate grower with a minimum tolerance around 46°F (8°C). Cool nights promote consistent blooming.
-
Humidity: 75–90%; maintain consistently high humidity — a humidifier or enclosed greenhouse environment is strongly recommended.
- Watering: Keep the medium evenly moist; never allow to dry out completely, but ensure excellent drainage to prevent root rot.
Additional Notes
Best grown in a small pot with a fine, moisture-retentive mix (sphagnum or fine bark with perlite). Plants are shipped bare root and well-established.
