Vitekorchis excavata
A species native to the cloud forests of Ecuador, producing branched, arching spikes densely packed with small, cheerful flowers. The blooms feature rounded petals and a broad, bilobed lip with a distinctive excavated callus at the base — a hallmark of the genus.
- Light: Bright indirect light with 40–60% shade cloth; avoid direct sun, which can scorch the thin leaves.
- Temperature: 50–68°F (10–20°C); a cool grower that thrives with cool nights and good air circulation year-round.
- Humidity: 70–85%; consistent moisture in the air supports healthy pseudobulb development and abundant flowering.
- Watering: Water regularly and allow the mix to approach dryness between waterings; never let the roots sit in standing water.
Additional Notes
Best grown mounted or in a well-draining bark-based mix in a slatted basket to replicate its epiphytic habitat. Shipped bare root, well established, and ready to adapt to your growing conditions.
