Pleurothallis perryi
A small epiphyte native to the cloud forests of Ecuador, producing short racemes of open, flat flowers with broadly ovate sepals and petals boldly striped in deep burgundy-purple over a cream-yellow ground. The wide, rounded lip carries denser, darker venation toward the center, framed by a small column with two prominent dark anthers.
- Light: Bright indirect light with 50–70% shade cloth; avoid direct sun, which can scorch the narrow leaves.
- Temperature: 50–68°F (10–20°C); a Cool to Intermediate grower. Tolerates brief dips to 45°F (7°C) if kept dry.
- Humidity: 75–90%; maintain consistently high humidity with good air movement.
- Watering: Water thoroughly and allow the mount or medium to approach dryness between waterings; avoid prolonged root saturation.
Additional Notes
Best grown mounted on cork or tree fern; a small net pot with fine bark also works well. A slight nighttime temperature drop encourages blooming. Plants are shipped bare root and well-established.
