Epidendrum cochlidium (Big)
A large, multi-stemmed specimen of this floriferous reed-stem orchid from the cloud forests of Ecuador, with densely leafed canes and a well-established root system ready to bloom. In flower, it produces rounded, dense corymbs with lanceolate spreading sepals and a trilobed, fringed lip — symmetrical, pom-pom-like inflorescences that multiply with each new growth cycle.
- Light: Bright indirect light with 50–60% shade cloth; avoid direct midday sun, which can scorch the foliage.
- Temperature: 54–72°F (12–22°C); an intermediate-cool grower that benefits from mild days and cool nights with good air movement.
- Humidity: 70–85%; consistent humidity supports vigorous cane development and prolific flowering.
- Watering: Water thoroughly and allow the substrate to approach dryness between waterings; avoid prolonged saturation at the roots.
Additional Notes
A large, well-established specimen from the cloud forests of Ecuador, offering immediate visual impact and a shorter wait to first bloom. Best grown in a well-draining bark-based mix in a generously sized pot. Ships bare root, well-established.
