Maxillaria neophylla
A compact species from the cloud forests of Ecuador, producing solitary flowers on short scapes from the base of the pseudobulbs. The blooms are star-shaped with broad, spreading tepals heavily suffused and veined in deep wine tones, and a prominent, rounded lip with a vivid yellow callus at the center.
- Light: Bright indirect light with 50–60% shade cloth; avoid direct sun, which can scorch the upright, strap-like foliage.
- Temperature: 57–79°F (14–26°C); an intermediate-warm grower that adapts well to stable indoor conditions.
- Humidity: 65–80%; maintain consistent humidity with good airflow around the root zone.
- Watering: Water thoroughly and allow the mix to partially dry between waterings; avoid prolonged saturation at the roots.
Additional Notes
Best grown in a well-draining bark or sphagnum mix in a small pot. Shipped bare root in well-established condition, ready to settle into your collection.
