Pleurothallis teaguei

Description

Well-established near-blooming size plants in 3.25" pots. 

This is one of the largest species of the genus (some taxonomists place it into the genus Acronia).  The leaves, which are reddish-purple when young, can be almost 18" across and 24" tip to top. Flowers in the summer with as many as 20 quarter-dollar-sized flowers emerging at the top of the leaf and resting on the leaf. Each long-lasting (years) leaf will flower multiple times. If you have the room it really is a stunning plant.

Care: Cool to warm temps, regular watering throughout the year, and prefers a moderately shady spot.
