Pleurothallis trimeroglossa
A small epiphyte endemic to the cloud forests of Ecuador, producing flowers of remarkable structural complexity. Olive-green sepals with irregular purple-brown mottling frame a vivid purple-violet trilobed lip with dense fimbriate margins and finely ciliate petals — an intricate, dynamic silhouette that fully reflects the species name.
- 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.
