A small epiphyte from Andean cloud forests, producing a striking umbellate inflorescence of campanulate flowers arranged in a radiating burst from a single erect peduncle. The bell-shaped blooms are densely spotted in brown-purple over a yellow-green ground, each crowned by a long, arching filiform tail from the dorsal sepal — a display unlike anything else in the genus.

• Light: Bright indirect light with 50–70% shade cloth; avoid direct sun exposure.
• Temperature: 50–68°F (10–20°C); a Cool to Intermediate grower. Tolerates brief dips to 45°F (7°C) if kept dry.
• Humidity: 75–90%; maintain consistently high humidity with good air movement.
• Watering: Water thoroughly and allow the mount or medium to approach dryness between waterings; avoid prolonged root saturation.

Additional Notes

Best grown mounted on cork or tree fern; a small net pot with fine bark also works well. A slight nighttime temperature drop encourages blooming. Plants are shipped bare root and well-established.
