Pleurothallis stricta
A small epiphyte from Andean cloud forests, producing erect, branched racemes with flowers arranged in neat alternating rows along the spike. The elongated lateral sepals curve downward like horns, grading from yellow-green at the base to deep burgundy-purple at the tips — a crisp bicolor pattern repeated across a geometric, architectural inflorescence.
- 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.
