Encyclia naranjapatensis is a relatively recently discovered and less common species of orchid native to Ecuador. It grows predominantly in the coastal regions of the country, thriving in dry forest environments. This orchid is notable for its charming and delicate flowers, which are typically small, with a greenish-yellow background accented by brown or maroon markings and a prominent, white or lightly colored lip. The petals and sepals are narrow and spread out, giving the flower a distinctive star-like appearance. Encyclia naranjapatensis blooms mainly in the spring and early summer, producing inflorescences that can bear several flowers, attracting not only the admiration of orchid enthusiasts but also serving as a critical habitat for local pollinators. Due to its specific habitat requirements and limited geographical range, it is of particular interest for conservation efforts within its native Ecuador.
The plant I received arrived very healthy and was really packaged well although it was not the plant that I wanted.
When looking on the website for a veitchii I was unaware there were two types.
I was looking for the veitchii that I had seen on several plant videos, I really liked the long narrow ribbed leaves and I thought that's what I was ordering.
I learned after I had placed the order that you sold two varieties of veitchii and it was too late to change the order.
I think it would be helpful to place the two varieties next to each other on the website and maybe call it veitchii
"wide leaf" or something else other than veitchii "type" I think it would make it less confusing.
Beautiful plants and I will be ordering again. Thank you.
Nice and very healthy looking forward to seeing it grow
As always another beautiful healthy plant love it..... Thank you 😊
Nice plant. Came in good condition with healthy roots and 3 leaves. One leaf was cut off before it was shipped, but overall I'm satisfied. Can't wait to see what it does under my care and conditions.
