Near blooming-size seedlings (6-18 months from blooming) in 4 inch basket. These plants are ready to be transplanted into larger hanging baskets with minimal-no potting media. Bred inhouse, the parents of these babies are both "Wild Type". The flowers have very light lavender-blue petals and sepals with almost ghost-like veins of darker color. Care: prefers intermediate to warm temps, very bright light-direct sunlight and water every 1-3 days spring-fall with a drier winter rest.
Well-established blooming size plant in a 3.25" pot.
This plant has flowers that never truly open. Instead a tiny slit forms in the side of the flower allowing the tiny gnats that pollinate it in. The flowers are dark purple on the outside and gold with purple dots on the inside. The flowers measure just under an inch long and last 6 weeks. Flowers in the late fall.
These plants grow well in cool to warm temps with medium/low light and should not be allowed to dry out completely. We grow ours in bright indirect light which makes the leaves turn purple. When these plants are grown in less light the leaves will remain green and the plant will still flower prodigously.
If you're into Pleurothallids, rare plants or the weird orchids, this is a good one!
