Plant Description

Sympodial. Grows to 25cm. Each new growth has numerous lance shaped leaves that grow to 1.2-20cm long. Pseudobulbs grow to 0.7-5cm

Climate

Grows at high elevations. Rainfall ranges from 38mm to 239mm per day, heaviest in June and lightest in January. Humidity ranges from 73% to 83%, highest in August and lowest in February. Temperature ranges from 11C to 25C, highest in August (17C to 25C) and lowest in January (11C to 18C).

Watering

These orchids are sensitive to excessive watering and should only be watered when they look thirsty. Water infrequently and ensure that the roots are dry before watering. Keep an eye on them especially during hot weather as overwatering can lead to rot, whereas underwatering may result in wilting or shriveling, which while unattractive, will not kill the plant.
