Culture Notes from Donor: Parent plant: Temperature range I (60-83°F). Trichopilias like a moist, aerated medium, but the new growths don't like to have standing water on or around them, so drying of the growths is necessary after watering. some growers hang their trichopilias where the air movement is very steady. seedlings do well in fine bark, and mature plants like loose sphagnum, but the medium should be chosen to match your culture. I recently changed my trichopilia potting mix to coconut husk chips with perlite added, and the new growths are staying drier, and the plants are much happier!
Comments: The seed was over a year old.
Parent plant: Medium-sized plant. Nice flower form.

The origin/habitat information below is supplied courtesy of Charles and Margaret Baker
The following information is based on the name of the plant provided by the donor, and assumes that the name is correct. If the plant has been misidentified, then the following information may not be correct.
This text is copyrighted by the Bakers and may not be reproduced without permission.
ORIGIN/HABITAT: Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, and Panama. At
one time, plants were said to have come from Colombia, but we found no
record of recent collections, and Escobar (1992) indicated that reports of
this species' occurrence in Colombia date from the time when Panama was
part of Colombia. In Nicaragua, plants are collected in the departments of
Jinotega and Granada at 2600-4600 ft. (800-1400 m). In Costa Rica, plants
grow in exceptionally wet areas in Alajuela Province at 2600-3300 ft.
(800-1000 m). In Panama, plants are reported in the western province of
Chiriquí in dense forests at 3300-4250 ft. (1000-1300 m). We found no
additional information about the habitats in Guatemala and Honduras.
