Pleurothallis miranda
A compact miniature species from the Andean cloud forests, forming dense clumps of erect, oval, fleshy leaves. Solitary flowers emerge directly on the leaf surface, displaying a hooded dorsal sepal, broad connate lateral sepals forming a wide synsepal, and a small, prominent lip — a subtle yet refined bloom nestled among the foliage.
- Light: Bright indirect light with 50–70% shade cloth; avoid direct sun, which can stress the fleshy, upright leaves.
- Temperature: 50–68°F (10–20°C); a cool to intermediate grower with a minimum tolerance around 45°F (7°C). Cool nights encourage consistent blooming.
- Humidity: 75–90%; maintain consistently high humidity with good air movement to prevent fungal issues.
- Watering: Water frequently to keep the root zone evenly moist; avoid prolonged dry periods between waterings.
Additional Notes
Best grown in a small pot with a fine, moisture-retentive mix (sphagnum or fine bark). Thrives under cool, humid conditions typical of high-altitude Andean cloud forests. Shipped bare root, well-established.
