Restrepia dodsonii

This miniature epiphyte originates from the rainforests of Ecuador, where it blooms all year round. These orchids spike from each individual leaf, displaying thin flowers that are orange to red with darker spots.

We have seen the most success growing these in sphagnum moss or bark mix. Intermediate to high humidity and moderate fertilizing will lead this plant to grow to a sizable specimen in due time. These are easy to grow and they flower off and on throughout the year.
