Culture Notes from Donor: Parent plant: Temperature range CI (58-75°F)
Comments: Parent plant: Species similar to cardiostola. A plant acquired from Ecuagenera from Ecuador. This is unlike any of the other heart shaped Pleurothallids I have seen. The leaves have a fine pubescence on the inner surface, the leaves are deflexed and the 1-inch flower lays flat on the inner surface of the leaf making it look like it is painted on. Small plant.
