This is a relatively small plant, reaching about 7" in overall height, and having an inflorescence of about 20" carrying approximately a dozen or more 3 cm flowers.
Encyclia dickensoniana is a small epiphyte native from Mexico to Nicaragua in dry oak forests and semideciduous tropical forests at altitudes from 100m to 1300m, making it a hot to intermediate grower. It is easily identified by being the only species of encyclia in Central America in which the mahogany-red petals and sepals are shiny as if lacquered. |
Donor's culture notes: |
