Pleurothallis nangaritzae
A miniature species native to the cloud forests of southern Ecuador, named after the Nangaritza River valley. Solitary flowers emerge directly on a broad, fleshy leaf, with a hooded dorsal sepal, wide rounded synsepal, and a trilobed lip with a prominent column — a compact and precisely structured bloom.
- Light: Bright indirect light with 50–70% shade cloth; avoid direct sun, which can stress the broad, succulent-textured leaves.
- Temperature: 55–72°F (13–22°C); an intermediate grower with a minimum tolerance around 50°F (10°C). Moderate day-to-night temperature fluctuations encourage blooming.
- Humidity: 75–90%; maintain consistently high humidity with good air circulation to prevent fungal issues.
- Watering: Water frequently to keep the root zone evenly moist; avoid prolonged dry periods between waterings.
Additional Notes
Best grown in a small pot with a fine, moisture-retentive mix (sphagnum or fine bark), or mounted on cork. Thrives under intermediate, humid conditions typical of the Ecuadorian cloud forests of the Nangaritza valley. Shipped bare root, well-established.
