Lepanthes Flame

A cross of Lths. tentaculata and Lths. turialvae, this hybrid displays intricate blooms with slender, curling orange segments surrounding a deep burgundy center. Flowers nestled close to the leaves invite a closer look at their unusual sculptural detail.

• Light: Begin with low to moderate, diffused light, protected from direct sunlight.
• Temperature: A provisional cool to intermediate starting range is 55–75°F (13–24°C), with cooler nights. Adjust conditions according to the plant's response.
• Humidity: As an initial cultivation target, aim for 75–90% humidity with gentle air circulation rather than stagnant conditions.
• Watering: Keep the root zone evenly moist without waterlogging. Use low-mineral water and adjust watering frequency to the growing medium and ventilation.

Additional Notes:

Broad, rounded leaves have gently cupped surfaces and finely textured foliage. Consider an airy, moisture-retentive medium or mounted culture where frequent watering is practical, and minimize root disturbance during establishment. These care ranges are provisional starting recommendations rather than verified requirements for this particular cross.
