Trichocentrum Pepe Portilla
A striking Oncidium alliance hybrid of Trt. longicalcaratum × Trt. microchilum, producing short arching racemes of richly textured blooms with strongly ruffled, lacinate sepals and petals. The trilobed lip features a vivid bicolor callo — a bold focal point set against the finely papillose, velvety sepal surface.
- Light: 50–70% shade cloth; bright indirect light. The succulent leaves tolerate slightly more light than typical Oncidium alliance.
- Temperature: 58–85°F (14–29°C) — Intermediate to Warm grower. Tolerates warm conditions well given its succulent habit.
- Humidity: 50–70%; good air circulation is essential. The thick leaves store moisture and tolerate brief dry periods.
- Watering: Water thoroughly, then allow the medium to dry slightly before watering again. Avoid overwatering — the succulent leaves indicate drought tolerance.
Additional Notes
Best grown mounted or in a well-draining coarse bark mix. Ships bare root and well-established, with a healthy root system ready to settle into its new home.
