Pleurothallis Walnut Valley
A floriferous epiphyllous hybrid of Pths. phymatodea × Pths. teaguei, producing clusters of simultaneous flowers directly on the surface of a large, glossy leaf. The broad, rounded sepals are deep black-purple with a rich velvety texture and a subtle blue iridescence, centered by a small golden-yellow anther — one of the darkest and most dramatic color expressions in the genus.
- Light: Bright indirect light with 50–70% shade cloth; avoid direct sun exposure.
- Temperature: 59–79°F (15–26°C); an Intermediate to Warm grower. Tolerates brief dips to 55°F (13°C) if kept dry.
- Humidity: 70–90%; 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.
