Culture Notes from Donor: Parent plant: Temperature range I (60-83°F). Though I currently grow this "intermediate" due to space constraints, it might be better grown as "cool-intermediate" (58-75°F). I've only had it during the cooler months, and it has rebloomed and started new growth, but the summer may require that I move it to a clearly cooler spot.
Comments: Parent plant: From Ecuador. Small plant.
