Lepanthopsis prolifera

Lepanthopsis prolifera – miniature epiphytic orchid

A charming miniature orchid with a naturally proliferating habit, forming new growths and little clusters over time. It produces short sprays of tiny, deep red flowers, usually arranged back-to-back along the spike. Native to high-elevation forests in north-eastern Colombia, it can flower through much of the year.

Temperature: Cool to cool-intermediate-growing. Aim for around 10–20°C, with good air movement and protection from prolonged warmth.

Provide gentle, filtered light, high humidity and consistent moisture. Keep the roots from drying out for long periods, while avoiding stagnant, waterlogged conditions. It can be grown mounted or in a small pot with a fine, moisture-retentive medium.

You will receive one Lepanthopsis prolifera plant.
