Gongora aceras var variegated is a rare and visually striking variant in the Gongora genus, part of the diverse orchid family. This variety stands out due to its variegated leaves, a feature not commonly found in Gongoras. The leaves display a mix of green and creamy yellow or white patterns, adding a unique aesthetic appeal even when the plant is not in bloom. Native to the rainforests of Central and South America, Gongora orchids are known for their intriguing and often fragrant flowers, which hang in pendant inflorescences. The flowers of Gongora aceras var variegated maintain the characteristic shape of the genus, resembling upside-down, bell-like structures with intricate detailing and a range of colors, typically in shades of yellow, brown, and red. These orchids thrive in warm, humid environments with good air circulation, preferring indirect light and high humidity. They require well-draining media and consistent moisture, but like many orchids, they should not be left in standing water. The unique combination of variegated foliage and distinctive blooms makes Gongora aceras var variegated a highly desirable plant for orchid collectors and enthusiasts who appreciate unusual and exotic varieties.

Dear Jonathan,
Thanks a lot for the feedback and help us correct this. It will be check with the staff, my appologies. Please, check your e-mail for more details.
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 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.
